Aegis is a virus scanner for Linux/Unix and Microsoft Windows systems with a simple and intuitive user interface.
Aegis supports scanning of subdirectories, hidden files and .zip and .tar archive files, and drag-and-drop of files from the Nautilus file browser, or your Gnome desktop. When a virus is detected you can choose to delete, quarantine or rename the file.
You will need the following Perl modules:
- Gtk2, Gtk2::GladeXML and Gnome2::VFS
- File::Scan
- Archive::Zip
- Archive::Tar
You can also apt-get install aegis-virus-scanner, if that's your thing. All of the above are available from CPAN. The POSIX, File::Basename, URI::Escape and MIME::Base64 modules are also required but are shipped with most recent Perl versions.
