> A properly installed new version. Read the archives of this list.

I've done so, and there are a lot of "what does this mean", and a fair
number of people who have half installed old versions.  I don't think that
is the case for me.

When I start up freshclam, I see this:
freshclam daemon 0.83 (OS: freebsd5.2.1, ARCH: i386, CPU: i386)
ClamAV update process started at Wed Mar  9 10:06:35 2005
main.cvd is up to date (version: 30, sigs: 31086, f-level: 4, builder: tkojm)
daily.cvd is up to date (version: 758, sigs: 463, f-level: 4, builder: trog)

It shows the right version number.  It will do so for a certain time, then
it will start throwing in the "OUTDATED" message when it tries to update
later.

Here is clamd's start up:
clamd daemon 0.83 (OS: freebsd5.2.1, ARCH: i386, CPU: i386)
Log file size limited to 1048576 bytes.

It seems clear to me that I've got the right version, but SOMETHING is
telling it that it is 0.81.  My real question is what specifically could
be causing that, given that I have attempted to completely uninstall the
old version.


> Does it match DatabaseDirectory in {clamd, freshclam}.conf?
web1# grep DatabaseDir /usr/local/etc/clamd.conf
/usr/local/etc/freshclam.conf
/usr/local/etc/clamd.conf:DatabaseDirectory /var/db/clamav
/usr/local/etc/freshclam.conf:DatabaseDirectory /var/db/clamav
I noticed that nothing was defined for TemporaryDirectory in clamd.conf. 
I set it to /tmp, but I'm guessing that's not the problem, since it's a
freshclam error, not a clamd error.
