What is the difference between Clamav and Clamtk? I know that both of them are antivirus.

ClamAV is the scanner or deamon.
ClamAV can only detect viruses and move any infected files into a quarantined folder; it cannot remove them from files. ClamAv detects viruses on all platforms, but it is primarily useful for Windows viruses and malware.
ClamTk is a GUI front-end for ClamAV using gtk2-perl.
It is common practice in Linux to split the frontend/GUI from the actual program so you can use it on a server install.
Clamtk is just a graphical interface to clamav.
apt-cache show clamtk(...)
