Thank you for your effort, Joel.

I still have issues with the following server from
db.centraleu.clamav.net group:

$ wget http://193.230.240.8/daily-23697.cdiff --header
"Host:database.clamav.net"
--2017-08-24 09:02:01--  http://193.230.240.8/daily-23697.cdiff
Connecting to 193.230.240.8:80... connected.

It is a form of dynamic load balancing using real-time network response time. If nothing else it will stop most if not all attempts to missing mirrors which seem to be the majority. Obviously it will also ignore mirrors that disallow icmp traffic.
