Nope, but I don't use anti-virus on Windows either.

I abandoned running AV a few years back. I consider that my risk of
infection to be lower, due to use of Firefox, knowledge & paranoia.
Given that, for me antivirus is more hassle than the potential infection.

Now I'm wavering back to AV (for windows), because modern malware is
that much more stealthy and that risking infection is very antisocial in
a connected world.

So I'll keep Clam installed, to scan on demand only. To abuse a slogan,
if we starting using on-access scanners, then the black hats have
already won.
