Hallo Anne (Again personal direct as the list may be not appropriate). Are you really sure you have disabled SE-Linux? Check which user the clamd proces is running at (ps aux | grep clamd) and if this is the same as the owner of the named folders. I use clamAV with CentOS 5 and ScientificLinux 6 without any problem (EPEL and rpmforge package). Why don't you use one of this package lists?
