Thanks for your help. I do have a question or two though. When you write "here's my personal rc.clamav:" does this mean you are running centos. I ask this as I have not seen this file. also in my web searching for an answer I have not come across this file. It looks as if it might go into /etc/rc.d. Is this true? Thanks Nigel Horne for the heads up over the cvs version having fixed the problem. Again thanks in advance for any further advice.
