InfANT is an open-source antivirus written in C#. It's distributed under the MIT license.

The goal of this project is to make a free antivirus driven by the community that can be easily changed to work in closed environments.

It has no databases included, and at this point, in can be used only as a basis for more complicated projects.

Currently, it has 2 languages: English (main) and Russian. If you want to - you can translate LanguageResources.resx and pull it to my fork.

English version works a bit faster, as it has less text to process.

Build status for main fork:

Build status for unstable fork:

UNSTABLE FORK IS NOT TESTED AT ALL OR TESTED PARTIALLY. USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Unstable builds are not published and are not included in the changelog. Beware! Version number of those matches the version number of a stable build they were built on.

Full documentation will be available on Wiki after 3.0 is released.

It was not tested on systems other than Windows (7, 8, 8.1, 10) and it probably will never be.

All developers should feel welcome and encouraged to contribute to InfANT, see our getting started document here to get involved.

If you've never contributed to an OSS project before, here's a getting started to get you started.

If you find a bug, please submit a pull request with a failing test case displaying the bug or create an issue.

Pull requests without adequate testing may be delayed. Please add tests alongside your pull requests.
