voidmain:
All of your questions about restricting a user to a specific directory in proftpd is in the FAQ. It really is stupid simple. It is more secure to give them an FTP-only account and not let them have shell access if at all possible.

See question #12 and/or #13:

To be more specific they are anti-virus scanners for Windows that run under Linux. So you can scan windows files if you are using your Linux machine as a Windows file server. Virus scanners for Linux viruses would no doubt be a money losing application.
