>From what it looks like, you're probably using ClamWin, which is not the same as the port supplied at w32.clamav.net. There are power tools from http://www.bandsman.co.uk/clamav.htm compatible with this w32.clamav.net port of ClamAV. ClamWin (www.clamwin.com) and the two cygwin ports I know of (http://www.sosdg.org/clamav-win32, http://hideout.ath.cx/clamav/) don't use the same directory structure as this build, so I'd not expect the tools from one port to work with another. The two cygwin ports are the most similar, so tools may be somewhat interchangeable with them. As with any open source stuff, asking questions about one port on another's mailing list won't likely get you much in the way of useful help. If you're using ClamWin, go to www.clamwin.com and have a go at their forums. If something is really broken in ClamWin, I'm sure they'll work on getting it fixed.
