Cool. Sorry if I sent you on a wild-goose-chase. I have a similar problem where logwatch would say "You havent updated." and it was due to logwatch not getting its dates correct when parsing the log file (I confirmed this by lookin in my /var/log/freshclam.log), restarting the daemons and rebooting the system.. the only thing saying it was out of date was an old log entry in freshclam. -- Stephen J Smoogen.
