Steve, I deleted the spam.ldb file as you suggested but it keeps coming back 
with a the date of Friday on it. I had no crash this weekend but on my 
freshclam run at 7:36am today clamd was found not to be running and didn't get 
started until the 8:03am run of unofficial sigs updates when it was restarted 
by the update script.  The link is good but the crashes are so random that it 
can't be pegged down, it just seems to die whenever it feels like it. 
Wondering if it would just be a good idea to comment out the scam.ldb file 
from the script since it seems to keep downloading even if I delete it, delete 
it again and see what happens.
