OK, Thanks Rene. I think my problem is that I am using an old version of clamd.conf. I found a new clamd.conf (clamd.conf.rpmnew) which I guess I should be using. Will give it a whirl and let you know. Thanks again. -- Kind Regards, Graeme. _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
