Perhaps it makes more sense to scan VMs from > within the VM. I do not want to scan it, but I tried out clamav, and accidentally, I had two vmware images in the path and clamav blocked by machine. It took me a while to find out that clamav was the source of the big swap file. I do not think that the problem is vmware related, I guess that any file of this size maybe causes it. I will try it out after chistmas with a file containing garbage.
