if my luck holds.
That's good news Chris... a couple of other people have found the same, so fingers crossed for the stable version :)

Sad to say, with clamav-0.95RC2 installed, I am getting crashes (about 1 a day). I'd say that clamav-0.95RC1 was less prone to crash, but it still happened every few days.
I am using Fedora 10 64bit with unofficial-clamav-sigs-2.4

clamconf gives:
