announcing ClamAV 0.75.1

Dear ClamAV users,

version 0.75.1 is available for download. Here is a list of the changes
backported from CVS:

* freshclam/clamd: fix crash on PPC when LogFile was enabled together
with LogSyslog
* configure: improve gethostbyname_r check; cleanups
* clamav-milter: Use GETHOSTBYNAME_R_6
Better load balancing if max_children = 0
* clamdscan: fix stdin scanning in local mode (patch by
* Stephen
Gran <steve*lobefin.net>)
* clamav-milter: %v in the template file handling is now replaced
only with the virus name, no "stream:" appears
* libclamav/mbox.c: Fix crash when debugging on SPARC
* libclamav/message.c: Fix occasional crash when scanning
multipart within multipart e-mails
* clamav-milter: Fixed warning message when building on FreeBSD4.9
Closed (small) memory leak
Fix crash when the 1st remote service goes down
Only use gethostbyname_r on LINUX for now
Improved load balancing a bit


Please upgrade your systems.


Important notice for people using ClamAV 0.60:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Our logs show that there is still a small percentage of ClamAV 0.60
installations updating their database. ClamAV 0.60 was released on
July 29th, 2003 and it was the last release to use the old database
format. Starting from version 0.65, released on November 12nd, ClamAV
uses a new database format, which is compressed and digitally signed.
We have been distributing the database in both formats till now, but
we plan to drop support for ClamAV 0.60 on September 1st.

We encourage _all_ users to upgrade to the latest release available.
People running an old version of ClamAV are missing many viruses and
may experience stability problems.
