Thanks for the replies everyone.

I was thinking they weren't talking also, that is why I did a 
bunch of tests before I decided to post.  I'm fairly confident 
that it was working, as most of the scans from the test viruses 
got caught.  Below is the log for the test virus with a .zip file 
attachment.  So I'm pretty sure that clamd was catching at least 
the test viruses.  And I don't know if it is luck, or clamd just 
hasn't been working, but the only other virus that shows up on the 
logs (from months ago) was W32/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
