[clamav-users] Action for Infected Files when scanning by CL?
Hi. When starting a scan by command line (sudo clamscan --
database=/home/anthony/.clamtk/db --scan-archive=yes --max-
scansize=500M --detect-pua --alert-broken --alert-macros --alert-
encrypted-archive --alert-encrypted-doc --heuristic-alerts --
recursive=yes /). What are the actions taken with infected files?

Don't do that unless you really know what you're doing. Look in the
list archives for reasons.

None. Look in the documentation for what clamscan does. Consider
what might happen if there's a false positive.
