Hi,
Another idea for Summer of Code that strikes me as useful and doable:
- Virus Scanner Support
WINE is currently one of the ways a UNIX user runs code downloaded from the network. This code is also known to be more often viral infected, might contain worms, or spyware.
There exists an OpenSource virus scan engine called ClamAV which could be hooked into WINE, for instance via CreateProcess() or LoadLibrary() or other places.
[There is however a small license problem. Clamav is GPLed, while WINE is LPGL.]
Ciao, Marcus
