ClamWin Free Antivirus :: View topic - MD5 errors since upgrading to 88.2.1 under XP

Posted: Fri May 05, 2006 4:04 pm

since upgrading my 2 home PC's to 88.2.1 I experience MD5 verification error when trying to download virus definition updates.

tried removing software and reloading but failed.

i think its something to do with sync issues but not sure how to correct.

HELP!

thank you

I've used the product for a year and never had to config a Proxy (i haven't got one). If i do what should I set proxy setting to?

what do you have in the "Download Site" in the updates tab?

try the following things:
1. Check your firewall settings and alow freshclam.exe network access
2. Do a database update and paste your update log
3. Change the database servers to:
db.local.clamav.net
db.XX.clamav.net (XX is your country code, like US, AU, DE, etc)
and try database update
4. If that fails, then please check if you can download the following files in the browser:
