We are rarely getting any phishing mails. I think they are all already 
rejected at MTA level. So, it doesn't matter too much for me. I was just 
surprised about this MS error message when restarting it.
As I haven't upgraded MS for some months now I'm sure the file is still 
being read on my systems, just that the downloaded file is empty. I have 
now moved the file that came with the rpm in its place and stopped 
update_bad_phishing_sites. I'm not seeing any mention of this change in
