Of course, it's wonderful to know more friends with the same hobby. But
I wonder to know the answer about it for long. The virus db of clamav
may be the same on the several types of platforms, but the commercial
softwares maybe not. I copied a result of 'Day0 Summary' from
shadowserver.org a few days ago, as following:

is not so important. ClamAV probably is not significantly different on
OS X, Windows, Linux, or Solaris because the signatures are the same
everywhere. The binaries, no matter the OS, just run. Rather well, in fact.
