Following error is showed when starting clamd;

freshclam[26882]: [LibClamAV] mpool_malloc():Attempt to allocate
8388608 bytes. Please report to http://bugs.clamav.net

I have lots of RAM memory unused on my linuxOS, but this error keeps showing on the display,I couldn't start clamd daemon because of the error. And now I can't send or receive emails.

Could you tell us the cause of this error and how to solve it?

Upgrade to a new version. I guess you have 0.97 version.
