old version of Clamav

Hi,

at first I want to say this is a very nice howto. I just would like to add one note, that can save to someone a lot of time and pain.

The version of Clamav in Debian Etch default repository is  quite old (0.90.1) and it takes VERY long time while clamd starts up and creates the socket file. It can take 15 minutes or even more while the CPU is 99% loaded.

So it is more than useful to install Clamav from the Debian volatile project repository. It saves a lot of stress:)
