You might check if they keep up to date; I don't know if fedora4
itself is kept up to date.  (Sorry, should've mentioned this before)

Er you don't have both installed do you?!  I'd remove every rpmforge
package first. 

    rpm -e $(rpm -qa |grep 'rf$')

should do it.  No guarantees though.  Even if that works there
could be detritus left around.

There is no one right answer for this.  If it was me, other things
being equal I'd install the latest fedora or ubuntu, because Redhat/Centos
just doesn't have clamav and amavis as core packages (apparently)
