Yeah, delete /var/clamav/mirrors.dat. That will force a rebuild of the file on next update. I've modified the /etc/cron.daily/freshclam and added the following code after the line that reads LOG_FILE="/var/log/clamav/freshclam.log": x=`tail -1 $LOG_FILE|egrep '^Update failed.'|wc -l` if [ "$x" = "1" ]; then rm -f /var/clamav/mirrors.dat fi When an update fails, the last line starts with "Update failed..."
