Too verbose.

IMO, the unicode chars are a bit too much.

What if the file is already marked? Will it get the same suffix again on the second scan?
E.g. some_file [VIRUS DETECTED] [VIRUS DETECTED]

Hello,
there are two options how to handle 'infected' with files_antivirus by now.
option 1: delete the 'infected' file
option 2: write about the 'infected' file in a log file
option 1 means, you risk to delete false flagged files and option 2 means, you need to take attention to an endless stream of log entries while the 'infected' file still resides in the cloud.
here is the 3rd option + the pull request:
Added infectedAction option 'Mark and log', which marks (renames) 'infected' files. This patch can easily modified to move 'infected' files into a quarantine folder. Translations are incomplete.
this option adds a string to the 'infected' files file name to mark it as infected. the users are now obviously warned about the suspected nature of the file.
best.
