Hi Diana.

I've also had this thing happening to my system - check if You have
clamd starting in the init.d directory - my issue was that I happended
to get clamd installed by another repo file which put the clamd startup
script under /etc/init.d (and linked to which ever rcX.d You are using -
 so check that out (clamd will be handled by QMT /var/qmail/supervise...)


Hope this can be helpfull?

Cheers
Finn
