A script to automate clamav package updates

This is wrong. Freshclam updates the databases by using the pool-servers. Critical network servers should run freshclam directly against the clamav mirrors as daemon or daily cron. Virus definition updates are not available for older versions of clamav, so you must keep your client up-to-date.
