I personally think this is an awesome add-on because I dual boot windows and linux and do not want downloaded malicious files while using linux to impact my windows drives. Right now there is still a lot of room for improvement, namely the fact that the browser essentially freezes while the scan is happening. I think that if clamav were used in the background and not be as noticeable to the user unless a virus was actually detected, this app would be near perfect.

I just want to note that I downloaded the EICAR test file and clamav detected it, however this addon does not give any option to delete it automatically. I think that would be useful option to show after a detection because users may forget to open the folder and actually delete it.

I am looking forward to further updates for this addon.
