Bug Description
When running a scan via ClamTk, the GUI freezes on every file and only gets responsive again when the scanning process hits the next file (and this way updates the GUI).
Unfortunately, I do not have enough time to take a look at the ClamTk source, but it looks like the scanning process needs to be offloaded to a thread that is independend of the GUI event thread.

Ronny,
Thanks for reporting this. Can you give more details? This isn't happening on any of my test systems (Fedora, CentOS, Debian or Ubuntu), so I cannot duplicate it.
If nothing else, please run from the commandline, try a scan, and post back any error messages.
(Open a terminal window, type "clamtk" without the quotes)
Thanks,
Dave M
