[Clamav-devel] clamAV scanning algorithm

Hi, I am new to CLAMAV & I am just wonder how files are scanned. Does it work like: 1. PE section is taken from file to be scanned 2. MD5 is calculated 3. That MD5 is compared to all signatures in ClamAV Database 4. If match virus is found. I have simplified this. But please let me know
