It seems, that currently clamav stops scanning file, when it
finds that it's infected. But for testing purposes it would be nice,
if there would be swetch to run full db scan - so that the for file
infected with multiple viruses allt of them would be recognized. For
example - I received virus mails that clamav recognized as "CIH #2",
NAV recognised them as Swen.A (Gibe.F in clamav). Which rises another
interesting question - if some new worm like Swen.A is infected with
some old filoe virus, would it be possible, that it's infected so
badly, that clamav does not recognize it as virus? It probably depends
of signature. Anyway, I'm glad, that clamav does recognize CIH - it
was quite nasty virus.
