  7. Copy clamd.conf.sample and freshclam.conf.sample from C:\Program Files\ClamAV\conf_examples to C:\Program Files\ClamAV, and rename them clamd.conf and freshclam.conf

  8. In clamd.conf and freshclam.conf, comment out the line beginning with Example.

  9. If ClamAV is installed on a server other than FileCloud server, bind the IP address of the server in clamd.conf by changing the IP address for TCPAddr.

  10. To update the ClamD database, enter:

    cd C:\Program Files\ClamAV
    freshclam.exe
