How can I invoke McAfee antivirus to scan a file using java code( I have used exec()function of Runtime
class but it invokes the anti virus but does not return
the status whether the file is infected or not)

I am developing an application in which a file is
scan for virus like the one done by yahoo or hotmail
mail when we attache a file to a mail.

Command line function scan also does not work

as we cannot trap the return value of scan
