Hi Folks,

It's been awhile, but I finally found some time to work on an update to
the clamav-unofficial-sigs script.  Based on feedback and user requests,
here is what has changed in this release (from the CHANGELOG):

Version 3.6 (updated 2009-08-23)
- Added "tr" to remove Windows CRLF from signatures in local.ign
  monitoring section.
- Updated signature database monitoring section to better handle
  rearrangement of signature database file name placement in the
  configuration file.
- Removed several of the config file reload options in favor of
  simplicity and most reliable options.
- Changed rsync mirror lookup from 'host' to 'dig' with the hope
  that 'dig' is more universally consistent between OS platforms.
  Issue reported by Al Sterman.
- Added the '-u' (timestamp check) flag to the rsync downloads so
  that signature databases will not be downloaded from mirrors that
  are out of sync and hosting old files.  Requested by Wolfgang Breyha
- Added a configuration variable that will provide the ability to
  scan a HAM (non-spam) directory with new signature databases and
  automatically remove signatures that trigger from the database
  before implementing.  Requested by Mike Cardwell.
- Added the '-t' flag to the script to output third-party signatures
  that trigger during the HAM directory scan, but only if the 'ham_dir'
  variable is enabled in the configuration file and hit were found.
- Updated required utilities section of the config file.  Requested
  by Micah Anderson.
- Updated Manual page, README, and INSTALL files.

There *WERE* changes made to script's configuration file with this
release, so please review the config file to determine if you need/want
to upgrade the config file included with this release.

The updated tarball can be downloaded from:

As usual, let me know if there are any issues, suggestions, or feature
requests.

Bill
