[clamav-users] Rate limited

[Adam Baliko]

It seems my problem was solved. I reduced the Update frequency to
every 2nd day and since then it's working like a charm. There was a
problem for about one week, but I figured that it was on my side.
After I fixed it (network error), I was a bit careless and made 2
quick updates, one after another to test it, and it worked. I was a
bit worried that my click-happy-ness will result in getting rate
limited again, but seemingly no. Ever since I fixed the network issue,
the updates are running flawlessly (once every 2nd day, for about a
week now).
So thanks for your help, I hope it remains fixed by now.

BR,
Adam
