Yep...
 
[root at host bin]# ./clamscan /etc/hosts
/etc/hosts: OK
----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Known viruses: 32281
Scanned directories: 0
Scanned files: 1
Infected files: 0
Data scanned: 0.00 MB
I/O buffer size: 131072 bytes
Time: 0.329 sec (0 m 0 s)

I disabled Sophos in the itnerest of eliminating the problem.  I also downgraded mailscanner thinking it might be an install issue...same thing running 4.39.5.
 
In thinking along these lines, I also disabled clamavmodule and all virus scanning altogether.  Same response.
 
I am wondering if there is something goofy going on with my 64-bit OS...seems that it shouldn';t matter, but it seems to.  Any help?

	Are you able to get clamav and sweep to scan the file outside of
	MailScanner? Its very unusual to see MailScnner prune the second it
	processes the message.
