Upon completion, the return code should be checked. "C:\Program Files\AntiVirus\Antivirus.cmd %f" if using a *.cmd, or maybe "C:\Program Files\MyFavoriteAntiVirus\mfav.exe -f %f -yap" "Command to be executed after download/before upload", with a placeholder like %f for the file name. The downside is that you have to remember that you need to explicitly request a scan by calling the *.cmd.Īdding an option to WinSCP would automate this step.
This greatly improves the detection rate. On the other hand, on-demand scanners, like ClamAV/ClamWin, or the on-demand components of commercial AV's, can easily be "stacked", for example in a simple *.cmd. The usual results: spontaneous system crashes, slowdown, and even a lower detection rate) (Attempting to run two or more is likely to cause problems as they plug into the operating system's file access routines, and expect to be the only on-access scanner on a given computer. The issue with such virus scanners is that they work as on-access scanners, and you should never run more than one on-access scanner simultaneously.
