Linux ClamAV Download Scanner

note: this module is currently in beta

Automatically scan your linux home directory when you download something new.

By default, this module only scans common directories (Downloads, Desktop, etc.) and searches for extension directories like your chrome extensions. I may add additional directories in future updates. Currently, this module only uses the active users home directory, and does not touch the root directory.
