I have trouble with freshclam

I upgrade to 0.95.2, but when I have started freshclam:

"Can't open/parse the config file /usr/etc/freshclam.conf"

although:

*ls -ld /usr/etc*
drwxr-xr-x 2 clamav clamav 4096 2009-06-22 20:07 /usr/etc
*
ls -l /usr/etc*
-rw-r--r-- 1 clamav clamav 7156 2009-06-21 22:17 clamav-milter.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 clamav clamav 12050 2009-06-21 22:17 clamd.conf
-rw-rw-rw- 1 clamav clamav 5943 2009-06-21 22:20 freshclam.conf

in freshclam.conf I deleted "Example" and corrected "db.RU.clamav.ne"

What I can do?

How did you upgrade - from a binary package, from a source install - how?

Did you check the contents of the file - the error message does
include the fact that it's also about the contents, not just the file
permissions.

I upgraded from a binary package. The freshclam.conf was checked. I delete
"example" and retype line "DatabaseMirror" to "db.RU.clamav.net". That's
all!
