About ClamWin

ClamWin was developed as a free, open-source antivirus tool for Windows, based on the ClamAV engine. It was first released in 2004 to provide users with an accessible antivirus solution that could detect and remove malware without cost. The software aimed to offer basic virus scanning capabilities, leveraging the open-source community for updates and improvements. Its development focused on delivering a straightforward interface and essential features like scheduled scans and automatic virus definition updates.

ClamWin's strengths include being free, open-source, and having a straightforward user interface. Its weaknesses are the lack of real-time protection and slower scanning speeds compared to other antivirus solutions. Competitors include Avast, AVG, Bitdefender, and Norton, which offer more comprehensive features and real-time protection.
