Issue:
- Dec 8 2009: 'ERROR: Can't verify database integrity' occurred between two command-line request within the same minute

Log of command line requests:
09-12-08 14:56:12 0006: Executing "C:\Program Files\ClamWin\bin\clamscan.exe" C:\windows\Temp\$TE4ztyd --no-summary -d "c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\.clamwin\db"
09-12-08 14:56:12 0008: clamscan.exe returned no error
09-12-08 14:56:12 0008: Executing "C:\Program Files\ClamWin\bin\clamscan.exe" C:\windows\Temp\$TE4ztz5 --no-summary -d "c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\.clamwin\db"
09-12-08 14:56:14 0006: clamscan.exe returned error level 50
09-12-08 14:56:14 0006: Virus: Scanner reported virus infection for flag_300.jpg

Workaround:
- rename main.cvd to main.cvd.bak
- issue a new update command (downloading a full database)
- the corrupted main.cvd can be supplied

Feature request:
- try to fix what is causing the database integrity check
- auto/self heal the database on integrity errors
- try to do this from within the command-line scan request (delay scanning operation untill healing is complete)
- when this is not possible, make such a check database integrity and healing available as a scheduled task
- and preferrable allow smaller units than once every hour (I would love 15 minutes as interval)

rather than renaming is better to wipe at all db directory contents
