Hi, just an idea for those insisting on running old versions: After some simple tests I believe it's possible to get your own "database check" even on versions older than 0.96.x (4?). Have freshclam update the signatures into a testing directory, not the "real" clamav database dir (that's what DatabaseDirectory in freshclam.conf is for). Use the OnUpdateExecute hook to run a custom check-and-copy script (I'm certain it will contain clamscan -d) to check the signatures, copy them to the "real" database dir and signal clamd. Looks simple enough, but then again I've just done some quite-to-simple tests with 0.97 (nothing older at hand).
