Have you read the manual on this yet? It doesn't really sound like you have.
You are SUPPOSED to read the manual before you ask questions on these lists.
I do know that the manuals are often incomplete and not properly linked to
additional info, but... This sounds like a simple problem that's discussed
in the manual!

When changing your system to include a new program in the mail-delivery
chain (like the qmail-scanner), THIS manual (qmail-scanner) says to increase
the amount of memory used my qmail-smtpd by changing the default line
similar to:

  exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 2000000 \

in the /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/run file to something like:

  exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 15000000 \

effectively increasing the amount of memory allowed for use by the
child-programs of qmail-smtpd from the default LWQ 2MB limit to a 15MB
limit. Since your log says OUT OF MEMORY, and things work without the
qmail-scanner-queue.pl being executed, it seems logical to say that
qmail-scanner-queue.pl does not have enough memory to run. This is well
documented in the manual/FAQ.

There are more issues to read about regarding this like do you know you're
supposed to restart qmail-smtpd so it rereads the change? And the 15MB limit
is a ballpark, adjust to your taste. blah blah blah read the manual.
