A workaround would be to set

DatabaseMirror clamavdb.planetmirror.com

in freschclam.conf.

done, works a treat

It sounds like the problem is more an underlying network
connectivity problem from your host to port 80 on many IPs
but not to clamavdb.planetmirror.com.  Perhaps your ISP
requires traffic to most sites to go through a proxy but traffic
to clamavdb.planetmirror.com is considered "local"
and allowed directly.
Finally tracked it down, a person had taken it upon themselves to update the firewall prior AU mirror problems to a stricter set of rules, they also turned off logging of the denies making it harder to track down.

Thanks for your patience
