    This bash script works fine for me to scan and remove (clean)...
    - ---------------------------------------
    #!/bin/bash

    echo "Recursively scanning /root."
    clamscan -r -i /root
    if [ $? -eq 1 ] ; then
            echo -n "Remove virus(es)? [y/n] "
            read i
                    if [ $i = y ] ; then
                            clamscan -r -i --remove /root
                    fi
    fi

    echo

    echo "Recursively scanning /home/charles."
    clamscan -r -i --mbox /home/charles
    if [ $? -eq 1 ] ; then
            echo -n "Remove virus(es)? [y/n] "
            read k
                    if [ $k = y ] ; then
                            clamscan -r -i --mbox --remove /home/charles
                    fi
    fi
