Agreed. Since my first email I've gone through and read the rest of
the clamav mail for the night.. It looks like a new main.cvd released
caused some congestion on servers. Coupled with a bug that caused
retries to time out, this caused clamd to crash.

It's working this morning, so I'm not too distraught over the problem.. :)
