[clamav-users] Errors connecting to mirrors

[Paul Kosinski]

True, except:

1. There was a successful download from 198.148.78.4 at 01:36 on Wed 28
   Mar, and no mirrors were ignored.
   
2. There were about 8 "everything up to date" attempts every 90 minutes
   until 16:36.

3. Everything failed starting at 16:36. It kept trying until 17:05, but
   couldn't download from any of the 6 mirrors that were listed in the
   mirrors.dat file I posted. More precisely, 198.148.78.4 worked
   at 01:36, but no longer worked at 16:36. The other 5 may already have
   been "bad" for quite a while. In particular, 150.214.142.197 failed
   Sun 25 Mar (but 155.98.64.87 worked).
