Looking in my Freshclam log I can see:
SECURITY WARNING: NO SUPPORT FOR DIGITAL SIGNATURES

What is this about ?? How do I sort it ??

you are not using binaries from https://www.clamwin.com/

I downloaded:
https://downloads.sourceforge.net/clamwin/clamwin-0.92-setup.exe

Installed it and ran freshclam.exe

The log shows:
ClamAV update process started at Tue Jan 22 14:59:14 2008
SECURITY WARNING: NO SUPPORT FOR DIGITAL SIGNATURES
See the FAQ at https://www.clamav.net/support/faq for an explanation.

I'm downloading again from the above link and will see what happens then.

excuse me if I insist but clamav binaries included in clamwin have gmp support for digital signature thus that
message is not compiled in at all, be sure to uninstall all clamav binaries from your system
then reinstall clamwin

tomt: After you uninstalled clamwin, do a search for *clam*.* on your hard drive. This will find any copies left of clamscan.exe, freshclam.exe and libclamav.dll.
That way you will be sure there is nothing left.
