# ClamAV ClamAV® is an open source antivirus engine for detecting trojans, viruses, malware & other malicious threats. ## Documentation & FAQ Official documentation can be found online at [ClamAV.net](https://docs.clamav.net/). Our source code release tarballs also includes a copy of the documentation for [offline](docs/html/UserManual.html) reading. ## ClamAV Signatures Anyone can learn to read and write ClamAV signatures. To get started, see our [signature writing documentation](https://docs.clamav.net/manual/Signatures.html). ## Installation Instructions ### UNIX #### Build from Source on Linux/Unix/Mac For basic compile and install instructions on Linux/Unix platforms, check out the [install instructions](INSTALL.autotools.md). For detailed instructions specific to building ClamAV please investigate our the [Linux/Unix/Mac Install instructions in the User Manual](https://docs.clamav.net/manual/Installing/Installing-from-source-Unix.html). For instructions on how to build ClamAV using our new *experimental* CMake build tooling, see [INSTALL.cmake.md](INSTALL.cmake.md) #### Install from a binary package For binary package distribution installation instructions, head over to [our website](https://docs.clamav.net/manual/Installing/Packages.html). ### Windows #### Build from Source on Windows The instructions for building ClamAV from source on Windows is located in the [Win32 README](win32/README.md). #### Using an Install Package We provide an installer to install ClamAV on Windows to "C:\\Program Files". This install method will require you to have Adminstrator priveleges. We also provide a "Portable Install Package" (i.e. a zip of the required files) for users that may wish to run ClamAV without installing it to a system-owned directory. For details on how to use either option, head over to the [Windows Install instructions in the User Manual](https://docs.clamav.net/manual/Installing.html). For instructions on how to build ClamAV using our new *experimental* CMake build tooling, see [INSTALL.cmake.md](INSTALL.cmake.md) ### Upgrading from a previous version Some tips on [how to upgrade](https://docs.clamav.net/faq/faq-upgrade.html) from a previous version of ClamAV. ## ClamAV News For information about the features in this and prior releases, read [the news](NEWS.md).
