It is not a real infected file. It is ASCII-text with a bagle-f virus. I put the bagel-f at the begining and than the text. -> The complete file is scanned. I tried the same with the eicar. After the virus is found the scanner jumps to the end of the file (and my programm stucks here). I hard look the file before scanning and release the lock step by step. It would be helpfull for my programm if clamav would stop reading on infection and return. 0.83 was doing this pretty good.
