[clamav-users] Are signatures for Windows only?

We use ClamAV (actually libclamav) with HAVP to scan HTTP traffic as
well as using it (clamd) to scan incoming email.

Since so much traffic is moving to HTTPS, I would love to see some
browser plugins -- in our case Firefox (ESR) -- for ClamAV. Something
that used libclamav (ala HAVP) would be best. Given the unfortunate
removal of XUL, a Firefox "Extension" (as opposed to a "Plugin") might
no longer be possible, and would certainly be slower than something
plugged in to the guts of Firefox. A hook in Firefox which piped data
to clamd (or whatever) might also be adequately fast.
