why?

perhaps you should scan in report mode only

clamscan -ri /root/scan.log /path/to/win

if you get false positive it's a good idea to report them to:

[clamav-users] Scanning NTFS Partitions

2011-03-26 Thread Roman Gelfand
I am thinking of using linux live rescue cd containing clamav to scan
vista partition.  I came across a post which doesn't recommend this as
it could produce a lot of false positives.  Is this true?

Thanks in advance
