Hi Xavier,

Thanks for the tips.  As far as the OS I use, at home I have gentoo 
GNU/Linux on a desktop and windows XP w/ cygwin and an old version of 
Mandrake Linux on a laptop (I was thinking of replacing this partition 
with something newer).  At the lab where I work, I have windows 2000 w/ 
cygwin.    It seems like  a lot of the  download options on the webpage 
are for Debian...  Would it be good for me to use Debian to work on Clam 
so I can use its package manager or would it be better if I used 
something else to have another OS to test Clam on?  

Thanks,
Abe
