Try "restart". If it was already running, then it will fail when it
tries to start again because it detects a lockfile that says it's
already running (ie it finds /var/lock/subsys/freshclam).
This is not really clamav related, it's how Mandriva (any distro really)
uses shell scripting to start, stop, and keep track of services. Come
on over to the #Mandriva channel on irc.freenode.org, and someone will
help you out with the things you need.
*OR* you can just turn off the daemon service by running:
chkconfig freshclam off
Then put your cronjob back in. But you need to remove the -d part of
the commandline if you run it in cron.
