A3. Immunet 3.0, powered by ClamAV is a real-time fully featured desktop AV solution. It contains cloud based detection technologies and the enterprise grade ClamAV detection engine. The product is produced and maintained by Sourcefire which owns both ClamAV and Immunet. W32 Clam was the original port of ClamAV to the Windows platform, this code is no longer maintained or needed, as ClamAV supports Windows. ClamWin is a free application maintained by ClamWin Pty Ltd., and has no association with ClamAV, Sourcefire, or the Immunet 3.0, powered by ClamAV product. Additionally, ClamWin does not contain an on-access real-time scanner, and can only be used to manually scan files.
