virus scan on file upload

843841Aug 4 2006 — edited Aug 8 2006
Hi,

I have a site which allows clients to upload files on the server. I would like to make sure the files are uploaded are clean, hence want to run a virus scan on the files before updating them in the db as BLOB. In case of infected files the client will get an error message.
Other than the option of using a command line scanner is there any other way to do this in JAVA? Are there any commercial/stable antivirus softwares having Java APIs for this? or any other way?
Please Suggest.

Thanks,
Kiran
