Indeed. There does seem to be a view from some people here that anyone using ClamAV should be regularly updating, monitoring this list, monitoring blogs, etc. Ordinary people just don't do that.

I wonder how many ordinary users are actually *not* using freshclam for updates. Pretty much every major distribution I know of will setup ClamAV in a way that updates are handled through freshclam. Unless you have a *really* fast internet connection, downloading the full .cvd files will be a lot slower than downloading a .cdiff and applying that. I think most ordinary users with reasonably recent ClamAV installations won't even be aware what is happening at the moment. Having said that, I agree a prominent message about the obsolescence of ClamAV < 0.100 and the current download limits is desireable.
