Yes, that's what happens.  The browser lets me know it's a bin file, and
asks if I wish to download it.  I initially was using
database.clamav.net (the default) in the /etc/clamav/freshclam.conf
file, and the same thing was happening, which is why I decided to try a
more local server. 

Perhaps I could just download it with my browser (using aria), and then
figure out a way to convert the file into the database.  Is it possible
to just download the main.cvd file, without using freshclam, and then
somehow convert it to the usable database?

.....hmm, once again, at 4%, it gave up, and has restarted.....well,
it's at 7% now.  I'll let it run overnight, and see if in the morning
it managed to download it.

Any further suggestions are certainly appreciated.
