You might try a different model of router, I don't know it personally
but on a quick search I do see the odd problem report. I've had my
own issues with Netgear kit, especially Gigabit switches which will
suddenly go off the reservation and need to be rebooted. It seems to
be either just some examples of the same model, or the way that they
get hammered, I never have got to the bottom of it.
In any event it doesn't look like a ClamAV problem, so we might be
straying a little off-topic for this list.

Thanks much for the suggestions. I had thought this might be a ClamAV
issue, since this was the only download (or Internet access in general,
for that matter) that I seemed to be having a problem with. (I recently
tested downloading a several-hundred MB .iso with no issues.)
However, after researching this further, I think you're correct and it
isn't a ClamAV issue. Rather, it's an ipv6 issue, and ClamAV is the
only ipv6 site that I access on a regular basis.
Long story short, I upgraded my router to dd-wrt over the weekend, and
the issue now appears to be resolved. (I.e., I can download freshclam
updates reliably now, even from the ipv6 addresses.)
Thanks again for the help, and sorry for taking up list bandwidth.
