ClamAV only has built-in support for OnAccess scanning on Linux. If there are people claiming that OnAccess scanning can be bypassed, you should ask them for more details. To my knowledge it hasn’t been discussed here before, and is the first I have heard of it.

However, some people claim this can be bypassed (so access a file and not force it to be scanned), so I have some questions: - is this true? Can onaccess be bypassed? - if so: can I force a scan of all files that should be protected by onaccess once a week or so? I know clamdscan exists, but you need to provide a folder to it, and via cron it seems too much to scan "/". Or maybe force a scan of all files that should be protected by onaccess but haven't been accessed/scanned yet? With friendly regards, Franky
