I'm still having problems while trying to run a full scan from root. If I
scan using

Clamscan -r / --exclude=/net --exclude=/home

Clamscan seems to traverse down /net/localhost and then
/net/localhost/net/hostname and then /net/localhost/net/hostname/net/loghost
excluding each /pathname/file that has "net" in it rather than just hitting
/net and moving onto another folder. I'm not sure if I am missing something
obvious but is there a way to only local scan local real file system's from
root.

Thanks

Dean
