Hello, I am running qmail-scanner-1.20 with clamscan: 0.65. on a FreeBSD
5.2.1-RELEASE system. Everything worked fine until shortly before 2:40EDT
on 8/5/2004 in which every attachment that is scanned dumps core. I have
checked every permission, memory size setting I can think of. The only
think that clears this up is to remove the daily.cvd file and restart
clamd. When this happens, viruses that are in the main.cvd are caught
fine and I stop getting core dumps. Is there something in daily.cvd
messing up my version of clamav?



The version of ClamAV you are running is very old. Try a more recent version? The current cvd files use a version 2 functionality level which is supported by ClamAV 0.70 and higher. It has been kept backwards compatible until now, but perhaps a rule was added that is no longer compatible? You should be updating ClamAV fairly often as the newer viruses are not always detected by older versions of ClamAV.
