Help
I have recently started to get the following report when updating the database. I have re-installed ClamWin but the message persists. Any ideas what I have to do to remedy things?
Thanks.

ClamAV update process started at Sun Dec 19 12:53:44 2010

It looks like the database is corrupted somehow. Delete the main and daily and bytecode files in your ClamWin database directory and then do a database update. ClamWin Preferences, File Locations will show where the DB directory is located on your computer if you can't find it.

Just to say many thanks - did as you suggested and that seems to have fixed things.
Great stuff.
