Raymond,

Can you explain to me exactly what the problem is and what you have 
found and diagnosed about it please?
This thread has got very long and convoluted. I use clamav or 
clamavmodule on all my servers, and though clamscan seems to take 20 
seconds or so to load the sigs at the moment, nothing worse than that is 
happening on my systems.
So what is the problem?

Jules.
