Trend's logic

I believe Trend Micro's logic is that they are not suing ClamAV per se -- they would be suing Barracuda regardless of what antivirus engine Barracuda was using. Trend Micro alleges there are patent infringement issues - they are not over not the antivirus engine itself, but how the technology has been used in a gateway security product.
