ERROR: Broken or not a CVD file

Submitted by ppps on May 8, 2009 - 4:11am

Is this a bug?
I made a fresh Clamwin portable installation. Successfully downloaded the virus database.
A few seconds after starting the scan, I get this error resulting in the scan to be stopped.

ERROR: Broken or not a CVD file

What is the problem?
Using Windows 2000 Pro.
