It's an all the time thing (at least at the moment). I've killed it a 
restarted it a couple of times this morning. But once it runs for a 
a while it gets right back up there.

For example, here's a snapshot of current resource usage:

PID   USER      PR  NI %CPU    TIME+  %MEM  VIRT  RES  SHR S COMMAND
32085 clamav    16   0  197  99:10.65  1.1 99292  43m  932 S clamd

Nope. It's dead stock from when I built this toaster. No mods whatsoever.

This is on a Xeon 3.0 Ghz (dual core) with 4 GB RAM, running on top of 10K
RPM U320 SCA SCSI drives, running RHEL 4, with all latest updates/patches.
