Hi altogether,

in order to test clamscan/clamdscan I used the *EICAR-Testfile* provided
on https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/EICAR-Testdatei .

I named it /EICAR-Testdatei.txt/.
Yet scanning it with either *clamscan* or *clamdscan* gave me different
results:

- _with clamdscan:_

clamdscan EICAR-Testdatei.txt
/home/rosika2/Dokumente/kgw/EICAR-Testdatei.txt: Eicar-Signature FOUND

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Infected files: 1
Time: 0.183 sec (0 m 0 s)


- _with clamscan:_

clamscan ./EICAR-Testdatei.txt

What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks in advance for your help.
