Hello,

since I am only connected to the Internet by a 56K Modem, that topic 
is also interesting for me:

Does fleshclam actually nothing else but downloading main.dvd and 
daily.dvd and storing it in /var/lib/clamav?
I recently ran freshcalm via my dialup connection and it started to
download main.dvd. After about 15 minutes (33% was downloaded) a 
checksum error occured and freshcalm restarted the download. Thus I 
prefer to download main.dvd and daily.dvd to my USB stick and to copy 
it later to  /var/lib/clamav.

If I understood this thread right, this method works correct. But what 
about the checksum check of freshclam?

Kind regards, Axel
