Seems to me that you are unable to get TCP dns queries.  the clamav dns
record is too large to fit in a udp query (which is why it says truncating,
retrying in tcp mode).  After that you will see that it times out.  Either
you or your host is blocking tcp dns requests.

My Results:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] etc]# nslookup
Note:  nslookup is deprecated and may be removed from future releases.
Consider using the `dig' or `host' programs instead.  Run nslookup with
the `-sil[ent]' option to prevent this message from appearing.
