I don't like avg at all for many reasons. it also listen to a port always.

I decide to use ClamAV as AVG and installed with update script.
Now i need to know how to replace in applications and where? also how to remove avg?
 
Did you integrate avg with some software? If yes you need first to remove the code insert in confs (example exim.conf) related to avg.

Then search where all avg files are stored and remove all (before stop the avg service ofc)

Then you cna install clamav from custombuild and integrate it with exim or whtever.

First Thanks for help

Me no, but it was on serve when I got server control from admin (he is not available now) maybe its installed with DA and I'm not sure which software use avg. in exim.conf was no avg.
May I use: "rpm -e avg85flx-r863-a3205" for remove?

Or simple remove avgscand from init.d (chkconfig).

"chkconfig --list" show just:
Code: 
avgd            0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
where is it?
 
I stopped AVG and its not up:
Code: 
avgd            0:off   1:off   2:off   3:off   4:off   5:off   6:off
But still avgscand use memory, what is this? how to stop it?
 
Thanks Alex
I stopped before:

Code: 
[user@server]# service avgd stop
Shutting down avgd (not running)                           [  OK  ]

avgscand is running yet. I don't know what is this?
