First, use the ports tree to update your clamav.  The packages look to
be out of date.

Sure it does mirrors.  See the /usr/local/share/clamav directory...

My only gripe with clamav is that there is a test in it for "iframe
exploits" which I believe is too liberal.  it frequently on triggers
my nightly maillog scan summary message which identify messages
already blocked for iframe exploits...  so i had to whitelist root@ in
my amavisd config to allow viruses thru.


Anyhow it has been updating for me without fail for quite some time.
Here's the latest entries from the update log.
