Bug Description

Binary package hint: clamav-unofficial-sigs

For the past week or so, attempts to download the malware patrol database have failed.
Examination of /var/cache/clamav-unofficial-sigs/mbl-dbs/mbl.ndb reveal that what is actually being downloaded is a 500 error from the web site supposedly hosting the database. Attempts to connect to www.malwarepatrol.net return connection refused. Its beginning to look as though this service might have gone away on a permanent basis. Downloading of the rest of the databases is working correctly.
