So ultimately clamscan.exe will not take stdin. I will just have to run it like you state above... multiple time! By reloading clamscan.exe in and out of memory for every file at which point am I better off just scanning the
entire drive recursively?

Well, clamscan will read stuff from stdin and scan it, but only as a single file. That is,

        clamscan < somefile

...and:

        clamscan somefile

...do the same thing, or nearly. Clamscan won't read stuff from stdin as if it were a list of filenames to be scanned, although perhaps an option to provide that capability would be useful.
