You do not need to remove old rpms before installing new ones. ClamAV comes in several rpms, so you need to make sure you upgrade them all. To find out if you have any others installed, enter rpm -qa clam\* If that command lists any packages, you need to find updates for them as well as for the clamav rpm that you removed earlier. None of your yum repositories appear to contain ClamAV (if they did, "yum info clamav" would still show details), so you have to find rpms built for your version of Linux. If you have RedHat EL5 or CentOS 5, you can find suitable packages at http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/. Download and install the ones you need with "rpm -Uvh". If you have another version, we will need to know what it is in order to help you find the correct packages. Moray. "To err is human.
