Out of curiosity, I happened to log in and run freshclam this morning.
On two v0.88.7 installs, I see this: 

~$ freshclam -v
Current working dir is /usr/local/share/clamav

ERROR: Update failed. Your network may be down or none of the mirrors
listed in freshclam.conf is working.
Freeing option list...done

The error code there is #59, "Mirrors are not fully synchronized (try
again later)."  Is there actually a problem with the mirrors?
