Okay, thanks for the pointer.

Problem is, I am not the programmer of the program in question. But the issue of whether the program violates the GPL or not is still a polemic in my place.

The program is called PCMAV, and the program can be downloaded here: (each link a different version of the program) http://rapidshare.com/files/130842014/PCMAV-1.5.zip http://rapidshare.com/files/123822011/PCMAV-1.4.zip http://rapidshare.com/files/116129695/PCMAV-1.3.zip http://rapidshare.com/files/109574110/PCMAV-1.2.zip

The program is a freeware, *but* does not use GPL.

Now, based on the instructions here: (in Indonesian language, I'll explain below)

http://maseko.com/2007/09/21/pcmav-kenali-lebih-banyak-virus-dengan-library-clamav-09x/

In essence, the instructions say: To integrate PCMAV with ClamAV, all you have to do is to copy the files libclamav.dll, libclamunrar.dll and libclamunrar_iface.dll, along with the latest databases main.cvd and daily.cvd into the same folder where PCMAV is installed.

Now, we are at an impasse; some say PCMAV is violating the GPL. Others say it is not. Based on the above, what's your take on PCMAV?

I hope to have a definitive answer so that we can put the question to rest.

Thank you for your help.

Rgds,
