If you are thinking of running a BBS 24/7 and getting files then you will need
to read up on the usage of virus checking as a service and here I use clamd 
for
which the docs provide detailed installation info.

Using it as a service, you will find it is a lot quicker.
Useful if obtaining a lot of files.

As you may well have now found out there are two sets of docs with mbse, the
original one as html paging and the other that I created from them along with
some additional info creating a .pdf file.
