Local Area Security is supposed to come with ClamAV. I have a copy of it, but 
haven't messed with it in a few weeks. Anyway - check out Local Area 
Security, then check the packages section. Under Package Links, Vulnerability 
Assesment - you will find ClamAV. If it's a P66, can it boot off a CD? Would 
you need to make a bootfloppy as well?
