That's true, I am doing automatic updates and it doesn't seem to be the problem. Although clamd is responding to any commands, it is not able to actually scan the messages anymore. There are still entries in the log file which refer to virus DB updates (just the scanning is not working anymore). So, I assume the threads are dead, but clamd itself is still functional. This happened today morning again, and the only thing I can do is to "killproc clamd" and restart again.
