You mean Visual.

libcheck doesn't work on Windows right now, due its use of fork().
Although I've seen some patches on libcheck mailing list working towards solving that,
so eventually it'll get there (in the next few years).

Building ClamAV with Cygwin is not supported.
And building part of it with MSVC and part of it with Cygwin even less.

To test ClamAV on Windows you can run freshclam to download the databases,
and then scan contrib\test, and make sure all the clam* files there are detected.
