Win32 API to invoke virus scan?
We have an application that allows users to upload files that the application will store. We would like to do a virus scan on each before we upload it.

Is there an API that the various AV vendors implement such that we can invoke a scan without caring which AV is installed? The security center knows what AV is installed and if it is up to date. Does that extend to allowing an application to demand an arbitrary scan?

Thanks

To support anti-virus protection, Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 uses an API named SP VS API 1.4, the Microsoft Office Share-point Virus Scan Engine (VSE) API, that is based on the Microsoft Exchange Server VS API 2.0. SP VS API 1.4 incorporates much of the original design but is optimized for speed in a Microsoft SQL Server environment
