You gotta point. So I changed the command to be:

clamscan -r

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Known viruses: 7286
Scanned directories: 36
Scanned files: 349
Infected files: 3
Data scanned: 5.94 Mb
I/O buffer size: 131072 bytes
Time: 3.528 sec (0 m 3 s)

clamdscan -r

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Infected files: 1
Time: 2.690 sec (0 m 2 s)

Why do they get different results? clamdscan doesn't show the total
files, but only shows 1 infected... while clamscan in this case does take 
longer but finds 3 infected files.
