Miscellaneous Hacks - Virus scanner for attachments

Hello guys and gals,
I was seeking for virus scanner addon for vBulletin 3.6.x , i found out one product for 3.5.8 Jafo232's addon but it was using fprot which is needing license and not free. So i decided do make it for 3.6.x and using LibClamAV.
It works fine and it's simple.
Here you go.
Thanks Jafo232 for his addon and idea and cheesegrits for his sample.

What does this plugin do?

This plugin let you have virus scanner for your forum's attachment managing.

Installing

Open your admin control panel and then
Plugin System -> Manage Products -> [Add/Import Product] -> Select 'product-vscan.xml' from your computer then press 'Import'
This plugin uses ClamAV for scanning files there is two method available for scanning:
First method requires LibClamAV support on your php settings. You can check it on phpinfo. If you do not have ClamAV , You can download it free at here and faster than second method.If you can not find php-clamav due to problems from its publisher server. You can download php-clamavlib-0.13-src.zip which i attached or you can download compiled version clamav.zip or if you are using Debian based system just type apt-get install php5-clamavlib on your shell.
Second method uses clamscan binary of ClamAV does not require LibClamAV just installing ClamAV enough for it but its a bit slower than first method.
Please feel free to ask any questions

This may be copied, reproduced or published anywhere without my permission.

Current version: 0.2a
File name: plugin-vscan2.xml
Change history:
0.2a: Added function for scanning file if php does not have ClamAV support this function uses clamscan and no need libclamav support just installing ClamAV enough for this somehow its a bit slower than php-clamav module, and installing php-clamav strongly suggested.Who is using 0.1a and having php-clamav on their system do not need update because there is no change for php-clamav support but if you want to feel better you can update it.
0.1a: Addon written based from Jafo232's old but changed scanning method for using libclamav

installed .,,,, but have no virus file to test it lol <<<<

any way maybe this will help you <<<

To install Clam AntiVirus (ClamAV), we are going to use the precompiled binaries from Dag Wieers RPM packages for Red Hat, RHEL, CentOS and Fedora. To do this, we are going to configure Yum to look for the ClamAV packages in Dag?s repository.

Adding Dag Wieers RPM Repository to Yum
1. Click Applications, select System Tools and click Terminal. This will launch the Terminal window. Type in the command cd /etc/yum.repos.d and press Enter. This will bring us to the Yum repository configuration directory.
2. From this directory download the Yum repository configuration file by typing in the command
wget http://www.linux-mail.info/files/dag-clamav.repo and press Enter. This is what the file dag-clamav.repo looks like.
Installing Clam AntiVirus
3. To install ClamAV AntiVirus, type in the command
yum install clamav clamav-devel clamd and press Enter. When asked to confirm download, type in y and press Enter.
Testing Clam AntiVirus
4. To test ClamAV AntiVirus, type in the command clamscan and press Enter.

Can't have it working. I've installed all 3 packages and keep getting blank page when uploading a file. My server has CentOS 5.1, Apache v2.2.3, PHP 5.1.6, MySQL 5.0.22. Did not install php-clamav cause i do not know how. Some help here would be appreciated, thanks.

i try to upload it ,,, but i have an error in attachments , function or hook i believe

what do i miss in installeing the clamav ?

[bahisyeri]

For those who can not find php-clamav i'm uploading compiled version.Because it seems www.phpclamavlib.org having some problems nowadays.

extension=clamav.so
[clamav]
clamav.dbpath=/var/lib/clamav
clamav.maxreclevel=0
clamav.maxfiles=0
clamav.archivememlim=0
clamav.maxfilesize=0
clamav.maxratio=0

add this lines to your php.ini and change clamav.dbpath to your clamav database path if it's not /var/lib/clamav

If you can check php's error log we can understand whats wrong if you are getting blank page it must be module error or you didnt install php module.
More SS and log can help us find the main reason and if you can send me site address you are trying to use that module via pm i can help you more.
Also added php-clamav's source codes from debian lenny package.
