Hi,

I'm new to using clam and I've got a few questions I was hoping I could get 
answered.I had a quick look around the FAQ, documentation and mail list 
archives but didn't find information on these questions.

1. When a new binary is released. How quickly will I need to update to it 
before I might be unprotected from the latest viruses. Is it usually a matter 
or days/weeks/months? 

2.How quickly will clamscan or clamdscan warn me that I am using an older 
binary. I'm assuming something will be output when i run clamscan or clamdscan. 
Is this assumption correct? Does this only occur once the virus database 
contains virus signatures that aren't supported with the older binary.

3.Will clamscan/clamdscan only start outputting warnings once the virus 
database is 7 days out of date. Is there any way to configure when this message 
starts appearing. Say for example can I make it appear after 3 days?

thanks very much for your help
Sandeep
