[clamav-users] Error: upgrading Clamav

[Steven Morgan]

You need to set up /usr/local/etc/freshclam.conf. By default, the ClamAV
supplies a sample configuration file named freshclam.conf.sample. Rename or
copy this file to freshclam.conf. You will need to comment out the line
near the top of the file containing "Example".

Hope this helps,
Steve
