I've contacted malwarepatrol about this but it never got resolved. As
far as I know, it's still issue #16509 with them.

The problem is that sometimes the "extended" signature URL returns the
"normal" (i.e. not extended) signatures. This happens somewhat
randomly; usually they send one or the other for a few days in a row,
but then switch to the other type without warning.

Thing is, the "extended" signature databases should have an "ndb"
extension while the normal (i.e. not extended) signature databases
should have a "db" extension. If they don't, verification will fail.
So, which filename do you pick? Whichever one you choose is going to be
wrong after they randomly flip the contents on you in a week.
