ClamWin is alright. I don't mind the manual scanning and such but the auto can come in handy. The Outlook integration is a plus. Mainly, I keep this around for quick fixes for scanning, portability and size. It's excellent in those regards. Sort of an emergency kit if you will.

This does not have a resident scanner and a knowledgeable user should know what file is suspect and what file is not. Able to adjust scanner priority level in preferences to normal or low when scanning. Schedule, scan individual files, folders, drives. Also scans programs loaded into memory. Filter scanning of files based on extension, include or exclude. CPU cycles are null since it has no resident scanner. About 19mb memory footprint in tray. Updated database daily. Try it.
