That problem has been reported already. I experienced it myself. To correct it, I shut down clamav and freshclam, deleted the entire contents of the directory and then restarted clamav and freshclam. That took care of everything. I am not sure if an official fix has been released however. HTH -- Gerard When among apes, one must play the ape.
