Thanks for the reply.
My users are very unsophisticated. I would like to be able to scan the uploaded file but do not know if ClamAV or another can detect viruses on FTPed files, especially if the file is infected with a Windows virus but stored on a Fedora server.
Check out f-prot: http://www.f-prot.com
They have versions for *nix and Windows. On the linux server, you could have a cron job that runs f-prot on the ftp directory every 10 minutes, or so. On the Windows client side, f-prot runs a 'Real Time Protector', and if the user tries to access a known virus, Real Time Protector will pop up a window letting the user know the file contains a virus.
