I've been using ClamAV for some time and am so happy you are providing
this solution, especially with the latest Bagel variant that is going
around.

I am using the development version from CVS on 7/31/04, and have been
sticking with it because it seems to have solved all of the memory
leak problems from previous versions (0.75 and so on)

However this morning I logged in and my system was completely out of
file handles -- I couldn't reliably run anything, apps would fail,
etc.  I checked /proc/sys/fs/file-nr and found that the system had
almost no file handles available.  So I killed clamav and freshclam
and "file-nr" went back up to ~3500 available.

So it appears that there is a fairly significant file handle leak in
this ClamAV version I am using.  Has this been fixed following 7/31? 
Should I upgrade to a new version?

thanks !
