I would recommend you find and remove any clam libraries, and also poke around for any errant clam binaries. Be sure you verify you stopped any running instances of clam. There are some changes from time to time in the config files so you may want to compare the new and old files. Check ownerships and permissions of everything when you're done. dp _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
