Is this the 'integrity test' for the clam sigs ?
I ran Bill Landry's built in version for the third party sigs and it  
checked out OK.

I ended up doing what I should have done originally.
Scan the list archives, properly.

I disabled 'SelfCheck' in the clamd.conf file.
Then enabled 'reload' in freshclam.conf and also in Bill's script.

(I also checked that neither Freshclam or Bill's Script would execute
at the same minute of the hour via cron)

So far no crashes in the last 3hrs.
(Whereas before I was getting around 3-4 crashes per hour).

I've did run the tests you generously supplied and
all checked out OK

Many Thanks anyway....

Robert.
