Hi Micah, Thanks for the info. It looks like the timeout is an Ubuntu packaging issue. The post-install scripts for the Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04 clamav-freshclam 0.103.2 packages create a freshclam.conf with "ReceiveTimeout=30", while the Ubuntu 20.04 package sets "ReceiveTimeout=0". I hadn'

No problem; good to know it was useful. In my case, only the one host behind the NAT (physical PC on a home broadband connection) is running freshclam anyway, but it appears I was still being blocked by the rate-limiting. As I understand it, that shouldn't usually have happened even with the

ReceiveTimeout=30 is probably the one causing you problems. I was bitten by that when installing ClamAV on an Ubuntu-based system last year. For me, on a ~16Mpbs downlink home broadband connection, it took longer than that to download the signatures, so would repeatedly time out and retry. I

If it's expecting a regex, perhaps try: --exclude-dir="/mnt/c/Program Files \(x86\)/" without the quotes, that would probably be: --exclude-dir=/mnt/c/Program\ Files\ \\(x86\\)/ Depending on the flavour of regex used, the parentheses may indicate grouping in the regex, so may need to be esca
