I use -O as I don't like to over-write an active file. I simulate (or try to) the rsync method of saving to a .phish.ndb file which I then rename to phish.ndb after successful download and simple validation test. I could use another directory but that seems messy and shouldn't be necessary. dp _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
