The unofficial-sigs script also does a lot of crazy stuff that could
lead to security issues if you're not careful. These days -- if you
don't mind tracking down the URLs yourself -- you can just use
freshclam to download the additional sigs... but if you have to choose
between the two, fangfrisch is the better bet.
