i am trying to use the command line scanner.
But it's not returning a 1 or 0 for a return code like the manual says.
When i run from the command prompt, i get filename = OK
In the command line application i'm trying to use, i keep getting a return code of 56.
Any ideas ?

ret code 56 is "Can't access file"

great...thanks. Got it going.
Is 10sec a reasonable amount of time to scan a file of 80 Kbytes ?
Is there a way to speed it up ?

don't forget that every time you run clamscan it loads and verifies the database. Also if your 80 knb file is a container (archive, mailbox, msi file) then scaning may take longer.

Is there an option to disable verification of database for each scan ?
With daily updates to the database, wouldn't that be enough verification ?
Great product by the way.

no there isn't.
Every time the clamscan program loads up it needs to:
1. validate that the database has not been tampered with (it doesn't matter how many times per day it is downloaded, a virus can potentially tamper it any time)
2. unpack it and load into memory
