[clamav-users] Scanning on Mac without installation

[Al Varnell]

I also cannot understand what your objective is nor what method you might have used to scan a Windows machine without installing a ClamAV somewhere.

Do you want to boot an external machine or boot the Mac from an external drive and scan the Mac's internal drive? Or reach out to ClamAV on some external source from the Mac and scan it?

I was able to scan a Windows machine with Clam AV as a stand-alone scanner and it would be great if I can do the same on my Mac using command line.  Any ideas, leads, or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you in advance.
