Deleting mirrors.dat only worked for a short time; it has now reverted to again only trying 62.236.254.228, which fails.

Deleting mirrors.dat again then allows it to update, but I don't know for how long.

I think I may need to implement a workaround for this bug by deleting mirrors.dat in the OnErrorExecute command. -- Jesper Dybdal, Denmark. http://www.dybdal.dk (in Danish). _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
