It just occurred to me, with this latest round of errors, that there are not 2 processes running. The PID is 1807 for all logged errors. This means that freshclam is making 2 connections. Any thoughts on debugging these problems with freshclam? All my googling suggest that it's a mirror problem, is there a place to report mirror problems?
