Hoy por la mañana me he encontrado que el clam, que estaba instalado en un servidor bajo Centos 5.2, no estaba corriendo.
Al ir a reiniciarlo de la forma habitual (/etc/init.d/clamd restart) mostraba este error:
Starting Clam AntiVirus Daemon: LibClamAV Warning: ****************************************************************************** LibClamAV Warning: *** This version of the ClamAV engine is outdated. *** LibClamAV Warning: *** DON'T PANIC!

La solución ha sido actualizar por yum el clamd:
[root@server ~]# yum update clamd
Al hacerlo ha actualizado estos dos paquetes:
============================================================================= Package Arch Version Repository Size ============================================================================= Updating: clamav i386 0.96-1.el5.rf rpmforge 12 M clamd i386 0.96-1.el5.rf rpmforge 226 k
Una vez hecho, he podido arrancar el clam sin problemas.
