    [ The following text is in the "windows-1250" character set. ]
    [ Your display is set for the "US-ASCII" character set.  ]

That^Òs how I installed it in the first place.
It installed fine with no errors, but mailscanner -v gives:

Optional module versions are:
0.17    Convert::TNEF
1.810   DB_File
1.08    Digest
1.01    Digest::HMAC
2.33    Digest::MD5
2.10    Digest::SHA1
0.44    Inline
missing Mail::ClamAV
3.001000        Mail::SpamAssassin
1.997   Mail::SPF::Query
0.15    Net::CIDR::Lite
0.48    Net::DNS
0.31    Net::LDAP
1.94    Parse::RecDescent
missing SAVI
1.2     Sys::Hostname::Long
2.42    Test::Harness
0.47    Test::Simple
1.95    Text::Balanced
1.35    URI

Trying to install it again under cpan give:

cpan> install Mail::ClamAV
Mail::ClamAV is up to date.

Strange.....

If you download my install-Clam-SA.tar.gz package from near the  
bottom of the downloads page on www.mailscanner.info, you will find  
it sets all this lot up for you. It will save you quite a bit of time  
fiddling around tweaking things to make it work.
