Um, yes, edit the configuration file. I generally speaking took the default
example configuration. These are the first few lines for MY machine which
is running Scientific Linux 6.3 which is a rebuild of redHat RHEL 6.3.

## Example config file for freshclam
## Please read the freshclam.conf(5) manual before editing this file.

# Comment or remove the line below.
#Example
# Path to the database directory.
# WARNING: It must match clamd.conf's directive!
# Default: hardcoded (depends on installation options)
DatabaseDirectory /var/clamav

This demonstrates one of the problems Linux generically suffers in the
Desktop world. It demands too much knowledge of the internal parts
of the operating system.

So I've gone ahead and taken some recommendations of others here, but here's
what I get when I try to update my Clam virus definitions files...
ERROR: Please edit the example config file /etc/freshclam.conf
ERROR: Can't open/parse the config file /etc/freshclam.conf
Is there something I'm missing here?.....shouldn't the application / program I
just downloaded be the latest version? The GUI displays that the definitions are
"Out Of Date" but when I click on the "Check For Updates" option it goes through
the motions and tells me they're still outdated. Is there some kind of fix for
this?...
