One thing I noticed - with the old files, in the clam log it said: Fri Aug 22 10:49:51 2008 -> Loaded 709009 signatures. With the new defs, it now says: Fri Aug 22 13:57:41 2008 -> Loaded 1113131 signatures. Does that figure sound right ? If it is then it certainly indicates the originals were corrupt after all. > > I'm not sure which distribution you're using but I'd check the .conf > files for paths with spaces - these might need to be quoted (with speech > marks), e.g., "C:\Program Files\ClamAV\data".

I noticed that actually, so rather than playing around with config more than I had to I created what it wanted ! Many thanks for the suggestions - I will be back for more if it still does it !!
