A new option to allow setting up the mirror where
downloadin the new version.

When a new version is out, clamwin connect itself on
this mirror server and download the last version of
clamwin.

In the setup we could have something like this :

Auto Update clamwin :
O Do nothing
O Download only and say a new version is ready to
install
O Download ans install silently

    I agree with the need of that feature. I was about to suggest it myself when I found that ticket, so today I post here to try to put focus on it. I also tried the auto update... thats not a very clean solution, just a patch...

    The feature doesnt seem hard to add to claim, and a simpler task would be to merge auto updater into claim project so that all users make benefit of it

    This feature is really important when having to support many computers.
    For example in elementary school classrooms where the teacher is not going to manually download and install new software versions as they are released.

    What about merging the clamwin and clamwinupdate projects ?
