Try just going to http://www.clamxav.com/ and navigate to the downloads page, then find the version for Leopard. Cheers, Ross Bullie -

Thanks for creating this tutorial - it's great! and I also used your MacScan tutorial and am waiting for the scan to finish. :) One question: My Mac doesn't seem to have a "contextual menu items" folder (for the plugin) - I looked in Kris/Library/ and there's no contextual menu items folder there. I also did a Spotlight search. Should I create this folder? Thanks! Hi!

I also have it installed as a 'safe' place to scan those questionable files before moving them to my VirtualPC or onto other Windows computers at home or work.
