[clamav-users] Failed to load new database: Malformed database

[clamav at lists.com.ar]

Hi,

We're still having the problem.

The workaround:

> To work around the trouble, you can add the "Win.Worm.Fadok-6328944-0"
to a local ign2 file in the same directory as the daily.cvd or daily.cld and
> any affected ClamAV versions will load properly.

Did not work (we think It´s because the problem is that the freshclam
doesn´t load de database).

Anyone knows if the database has been corrected, as David Raynor said
yesterday it would?

Thanks,
Maria
