NOTE: I usually run antivir manually as user (not root).

I wonder if prelink has modified the executable?
... if not, this is VERY disquieting!

It was probably modified by prelink. Check /etc/prelink.conf for a list of directories that prelink will examine.


You can either disable prelink to fix the problem, or make sure "antivir" is in a directly not listed. /usr/local, for instance, should be good.
