      A couple of options here:

      1. Make sure that you are using clamdscan for virus checking in Moodle settings.
      2. Make sure that Moodle data directory permissions does not allow others read/execute (e.g. chmod 700 /path/to/moodledata).
      3. Make sure you have at least one external repo that allows files importing (e.g. Flickr public).
      4. Create file resource, choose adding new file and use external repo to chose file from. You should not get any errors, file should be successfully imported.
      5. Replicate steps above using clamscan
