Well, as Clam has found active current viruses that ETrust has now
found, I'd guess it's already broken. So there's not much left to
conflict with :-) I'd probably remove ETrust and just run Clam from
now on, even if you have to manually update definitions that's better
than a product that doesn't protect you.

But those sorts of questions aren't very Linux related :-) The closest
I can get is to point out that Clam is an open source program, and is
also consistently amongst the top performers in the anti-virus world.
