Run clamconf |grep TemporaryDir to see where it would like the temp dir to be.
And since clamd does not normally run as user root it won't be able to scan
every file or directory on your system. Clamdscan, which can run as root, tells
clamd, which normally does not, what to do and where. There are ways around this
limitation.
