do you have multiple devices behind one IP address?
Do any of those devices download clamav database diferently then using
freshclam?

i have one device that uses freshclam once per hour
i am using a vpn
it looks like anyone that uses a vpn is probably screwed
it was good while it lasted

What is your public IP?
