My personal opinion -- if you aren't building from source, basicly you should be looking for a different AV solution. With Clam it has often been necessary in the last few months to run CVS versions to be able to use the latest virus updates. If you are running a 4-5 month old version of Clam, it is going to miss a lot of recent viruses. You may not even be able to update your database any more, as the older database format has been retired. If nothing else, a new database update mechanisim has been introduced, where the DB version is distributed via a DNS record to reduce the load on the virus database mirrors. You'll be doing the Clam team a big favor by moving to 0.80 soon. ========================================================== Chris Candreva -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- (914) 967-7816 WestNet Internet Services of Westchester http://www.westnet.com/
