If a user interested on security risks like this ones after 0.83:
------------------------------------------------------
- libclamav/mbox.c: Some Sober.N were getting through,
* clamd/scanner.c: fix possible crash when MaxStreamLength
* libclamav/vba_extract.c: fix possible crash
* libclamav:	Added TNEF (winmail.dat) decoding. Now finds eicar in test
14
* libclamav/scanners.c: fix encrypted zip detecion
* libclamav/mbox.c:	Not all Worm.Bagle.AC were being caught
* libclamav: call cli_check_jpeg_exploit() independently of pattern
matcher
* clamd/scanner.c: fix ports scan loop
* libclamav/mbox.c:	Some Worm.Yaha.K were not being found

and so on
--------------------------------------------------------------
there must be update.  It's not a good way to wait that nothing goes on.
If mandriva can't do this, the users can also get the 0.85 Version for the mandriva LE2005 Version of clamav here:

ftp://mandrivauser.de/rpm/andyrtr/2005/RPMS/

But ATTENTION this is a private package builder no warranty no support !!

Thank you,

Regards
