I have to run it as root as I am using it in co-ordination with qmail and qmail-scanner. Unfortunately clamd's user qscand does not have the necessary permission's to scan mail from qmail's scan directory. I have therefore changed the user to root in order to satisy this requirement.
It works perfectly at the moment, my only concern is any potential security risks at the moment. I am also looking into running clamd under supervise at the moment too.
