Hi Marc, So apparently it was a bug(?) in ClamTK. The errors have gone away (for now). The big problem is I want Clam to do what Clamonacc does so removing it shouldn't be an option? I want it to run at certain times to check for malicious files, etc. I'll re-enable the schedule via Clam TK and see if it still hogs the CPU. If it does I may have to find another AV solution. -- Tim McConnell <tmcconnell...@gmail.com>
