Hi Rob, Thank you for the information.
I should mention that I have clamd running as a service under windows server 2003. From my reading and I may be confusing things, I thought I had to use clamdscan in this scenario. What is the key difference between clamdscan and clamscan?

You'll need to configure clamd that way, since clamdscan uses clamd (the hint is in the name). The man page for clamd.conf will give you what you want, but key lines would included: LogFile c:\example\log.file.txt Note that clamd isn't a full AV product and doesn't include quarantining. For that you'll want clamscan. Again the man page tells you what you want, but something like: clamscan -l=c:\example\log.file.txt --move c:\quarantine\ c:\ -- Please keep list traffic on the list.
