Sun Aug 24 09:01:30 2008 -> --- Stopped at Sun Aug 24 09:01:30 2008 First question - Why might it be detecting database modifications when freshclam hasn't been run ? 2nd - Why does it start up quite happily again after it detected "Malformed database" ? Also when it bombs, only clamd fails but srvany.exe doesn't. Is there a way to force srvany.exe to fail if it's child process fails ? because the system won't recover and restart clamd all the time srvany.exe is running.
