Surely you ought to be updating rkhunter over https and port 443?

E.g. wget is linked with libproxy (on my system anyway), which means
that it even picks up the proxy configured with KDE - except of course
from rkhunter it would not be run as the logged-in desktop user.
But there are many ways to configure a proxy, for wget and others.
