Jump to PostLooks like it wants to install on a 32 bit system or different hardware. What distro are you running?
Jump to Postif it ends in x86_64.rpm, thats a program for 64 bit. Get the 32 bit one instead. If you want to install Clam under RHEL or Fedora, dont use the RPMs, install it using "yum install clamav"

I can only assume he is setting up a linux mail/file server. In which case Clam is a good idea to protect windows clients.
ClamAV works just fine as x86_64. How are you trying to install it? From source? On Fedora or RHEL, you can install x86_64 ClamAV from either the atrpms or epel repositories. Use either of these repositories and you should be able to install it just fine using yum. Most use the epel repository.
FWIW, the epel repository should be in the normal Fedora repositories. Just execute the command "yum install epel-release". Then after you install that, try "yum install clamav.x86_64".
