Minor updates to overcome issues reported by a few users:

# Version 1.7c (updated 9/25/07)
#   - Added timeout values to curl and rsync downloads in order to prevent
#     the script from hanging on a non-responsive signature host site.
#   - Apparently Solaris does not support "date +%s", which calculates
#     the number of seconds since epoch.  This date function is used to
#     calculate when to do MBL downloads.  If Solaris users want to use
#     the MBL signatures, the recommendation is to install GNU date.

See download URL above.  Steve, please post to the SaneSecurity "Usage" site
when you get a change.

Thanks,

Bill
