try ps ax | grep freshclam and look for something like 3073 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/local/bin/freshclam -d if it's there, try and figure out what is starting it (if you haven't removed it already), look in /etc/init.d or possibly even /etc/inetd or /etc/xinetd <snip> -- ----------------- Bob Hutchinson Midwales dot com ----------------- _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
