The sample freshclam.conf clamav-0.103.0-rc2/etc/freshclam.conf.sample has
the
lines:
# Number of database checks per day.
# Default: 12 (every two hours)
#Checks 24
but

requests:
To mitigate, please complete the following tasks:
1. Use Freshclam instead of Python or whatever downloading script
you have cron'd.
2. Reduce the checks to once or twice a day.
Would it make sense to make these agree ?
