     Ie., I may:

1. stop running ClamAV;
2. place bases into ClamAV directories;
3. run ClamWin again.

? Is it sufficient to stop ClamWin, which resides in tray, to stop ClamAV?

     For this, I should know the bases URL. clamav-virusdb@ group doesn't
shows URL for updates. Also, ftp is more preferable for downloading, because
ftpmail robots have less restrictions and more stable, than web-to-mail
robots.

     If base is protected by digital signatures (like PGP keys), then
(in)security of communication lines is low important. BTW, after some
incendents with decepted "virus bases", russian antiviruses (Dr.Web, KAV)
begin to protect own bases.
