Thanks to all who replied, Bill Randle has built 10.1 rpms for clamav but I 
had problems upgrading with his last time, I wasn't doing the upgrade 
right.  The last clamav update was while 10.1 updates were still supported 
so I was able to update using mandriva update.  Bill set me straight on 
what I'd done wrong and I was able to install his update rpms with no 
problem.  You'd think that by now I'd know how to do something simple like 
an update from the cli.

Thanks again all

Chris
