Command Line Virus Scan with Output

Question

What is the best tool to handle doing a command line virus scan in C#? I am looking to allow users to upload files to my site, but I want to scan their files for viruses and if one is found, to get the output of the result so I can suspend the user's account automatically.

Any tutorials, guides, or tools that are recommended for this?

Answer 1

I was able to accomplish this pretty easily using ClamWin with the following argument:

C:\Program Files (x86)\ClamWin\bin\clamscan.exe -d C:\ProgramData\.clamwin\db --remove --stdout MY_FILE_NAME_AND_PATH

This allows me to read the StOut from my C# code and parse it and it also removes the file if a virus exists.
