clamav install instructions on Mandrake 10.1

Folks, I downloaded clamav-0.83.tar.gz and related .sig file. How do I
extract the files from here and install the anti-virus on the machines
?
Can you please provide step-by-step instructions, am trying to learn a
little.
Thanks,
Raj.

Tar 101 for newbies, first step, click up a terminal and do a

man tar

For any tar archive, you unpack the tar archive that is gnu zipped
(.gz) with the command
tar zxvf clamav-0.83.tar.gz

you the do a ls -a and start looking around for
readme/install/makefiles to see what is going on.

You might even find a url where you can find documentation/FAQs.
