Hello,

I found minor problem: If "LogTime yes" option is specified in
"/etc/freshclam.conf" freshclam config file, then all messages in logfile
are preceeded by datetime field in form:

Tue Dec 23 17:02:09 2008 -> daily.cld is up to date (version: 8794,
sigs: 41128, f-level: 38, builder: ccordes)
Tue Dec 23 20:02:09 2008 -> --------------------------------------
Tue Dec 23 20:02:09 2008 -> ClamAV update process started at Tue Dec
23 20:02:09 2008
Tue Dec 23 20:02:10 2008 -> main.cvd is up to date (version: 49, sigs:
437972, f-level: 35, builder: sven)
Tue Dec 23 20:02:10 2008 -> Downloading daily-8795.cdiff [100%]
Tue Dec 23 20:02:10 2008 -> daily.cld updated (version: 8795, sigs:
41128, f-level: 38, builder: neo)
Tue Dec 23 20:02:10 2008 -> Database updated (479100 signatures) from
db.cz.clamav.net (IP: 194.228.41.13)
Tue Dec 23 23:02:09 2008 -> --------------------------------------

thus parsing condition (anchored to line start):

} elsif (($Date) = ($ThisLine =~ /^ClamAV update process started at
\w{3} (\w{3} [\d ]\d ..:..:.. \d{4})$/)) {

cannot be never satisfied, and log processing ends with
"No updates detected in the log ..." message.
