ClamAV comes with the freshclam service to do automatic virus signature
file updates. You too can run a cronjob.
There is no real need to scan your Fedora system with any anti-virus
tool like ClamAV. It can make sense to scan Samba share directories
where Windows® people store their possibly infected files.

It makes sense to look for MailScanner updates as there are certainly
code improvements for better mail processing results. ClamAV can be
updated easily by using one of the repositories for Fedora Core.
