I can run a manual clamscan |

Note that I can manually run clamscan, like this:
clamscan.exe --database="C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\.clamwin\db" --recursive -i %* and it works fine I had to manually download the definitions because clamwin gave a similar error when I try to download DB updates with the GUI. I imagine freshclam would run via the command line as well, though I haven't tried it. The problem seems to be based around the temp file creation, that clamwin uses, though that's just a guess. Any more suggestions? |

I don't know what is wrong there - first time I see this problem. Do you have any other antivirus with realtime monitor running?

uninstalled norton & reinstalled ClamWin |

I had Norton AV installed (but disabled.) I uninstalled Norton. Restarted. No change.
Reinstalled ClamWin w/ default options. Rebooted. No change. I also played around w/ permissions on the temp folders and .clamwin subfolders. I added explicit write/modify permissions for "Everyone" which didn't seem to help. Although I'm assuming all clamWin /clamscan stuff should be running under my credentials - I have Administrators access. I suppose it's not all bad since I can still run clamscan via the command line. Does clamscan do the temp folder work, or is that done through clamwin? |

temp directory is used by both clamscan and clamwin. However clamscan doesn'ty seem to have problem with it. Clamwin returns an error when it tries to save or read from a log file. No idea why to be honest...
