Does anyone know of an anti virus API that could be used to scan uploaded
files from a web site? I am creating an application that will allow users to
upload files into a SQL database.

Theoretically I'm sure we could have it upload the files to a directory
(where the server Anti Virus real-time scan would catch it) and then transfer
those that survive the process into the database however that seems
increadibly inefficient.

Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Anthony,

I don't feel anti-virus companies are that accomidiating however most support some kind of command line feature. Drop that file in a directory then call the command line tool. You can call that command line even in ASP .Net.
