Adding new system user and group</A>

    If you are installing ClamAV for the first time, you have to add a new
    user and group to your system:
    <PRE>
	# groupadd clamav
	# useradd -g clamav -s /bin/false -c "Clam AntiVirus" clamav
</PRE>
    Consult a system manual if your OS has not <SPAN  CLASS="textit">groupadd</SPAN> and
    <SPAN  CLASS="textit">useradd</SPAN> utilities. <SPAN  CLASS="textbf">Don't forget to lock access to the
    account!</SPAN>
