Chris,

I've seen many download errors since yesterday:

CURL had a problem getting scam.ndb.gz , error code : 7
	Check : /var/tmp/clamdb/SCAM-UpdateSession.log
CURL had a problem getting phish.ndb.gz , error code : 7
	Check : /var/tmp/clamdb/PHISH-UpdateSession.log


The download script I use seems robust enough to not install incomplete 
files:
