If the issue is FreshClam conflicting with another script/process which is updating 'unofficial' configuration files, why not put the onus onto that other script/process? You must be running some sort of cron job in order to 'regularly' download the updates for those 'unofficial' files? So why not run freshclam as part of that same procedure/job? - Charles _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
