I think I may have just found at least a part of the problem.

I just checked the F-Prot site for updates, and found that there was a
definition update created yesterday and apparently released today.

I'm thinking at this point that maybe the download was corrupt or
something of that nature.

I just manually downloaded the update files and re-enabled Q-S, did a few
test messages and everything seems to be back to normal.

I've temporarily killed the cron job that I had auto-updating until I gain
a little more confidence in the update files.

Does anyone have any good update scripts that do error checking on the
files prior to installing them?  If so, I'd like to take a look at that.

PS - Jason, sorry for the dupe email.  The email I just sent was addressed
only to you, and I wanted to resend to be sure that I could get some input
from list subscribers.
