usually that will work, although you probably need to restart freshclam
as well, assuming you ran daemonized.  If you want to be absolutely
certain, perform these extra tasks (marked by *)
     1. Download new tarball.
     2. Backup existing /etc/clamd.conf & freshclam.conf files
     3. untar clamav-0.84
     4. run ./configure with options
     5. make
     6. * stop MTA
     7. stop existing clamd
     8. * stop existing freshclam
     9. * cd to clamav-0.83 directory
    10. * su -c make uninstall
    11. * cd to clamav-0.84 directory
    12. su -c make install
    13. reload old config files overwriting newly installed ones OR edit
        new
    14. config files with options to suit my set up.
    15. restart clamd.
    16. * restart freshclam
    17. * restart MTA
