is logrotate changing it?

this is the script I use, in /etc/logrotate.d

/var/log/freshclam.log {
    weekly
    rotate 4
    compress
    delaycompress
    create 0600 clamav root
        postrotate
                /etc/init.d/freshclamd restart
        endscript
}

make sure that the restart is stop then start, -HUP causes the old, now 
rotated log to continue to be written to, at least it does on my system 8-|
