Try with clamd and use the --external option to

Would the 'internal' mode be working again soon?  Thanks.

It was broken in 0.84, and will not work until someone finds the bug. If you have time and skills in multithreaded programming, I strongly encourage you to look through the source code.

There are several of us who have not "jumped ship" to the --external mode, and are instead trying to understand what is causing the --internal mode to hang on occasion. We'd appreciate help, though, as this has proven to be a very difficult bug to squash. In particular, we need someone to capture an strace during a hang. That will hopefully give a hint of exactly where it is hanging.

Compiling a list of hardware/software configurations that have/have not seen this bug would also be helpful. For example, upgrading to a 2.6 kernel might be a "solution", based on the reports I've seen.
