I am unable to access clamav.net
Perhaps my Ubuntu computer is infected with a virus that redirects
html requests to "iyfbodn.com". To test it, I installed clamav (sudo
apt install clamav clamav-daemon). When I updated it (sudo freshclam)
I got the message:

1) How I can resolve this to get last clamav updates?

Which clamav version do you have? versions older than 0.103 are not
supported.

clamav web and virus DB are protected from automated fetching. You need
browser or freshclam new enough.

sorry, looks like a real virus targetting browsers.
Can you try searching from other computer?

Is freshclam 0.103.9 new enough?
I cannot use my brouser (Firefox 117 64 bit) because cloudflare blocks
my access to clamav.net.

Yes, i tried installing clamav on another computer in my local network
and got the same errors when running freshclam and clamscan.

Also, I can't access to clamav .net from any computer on my local
network because claudflare blocks me. I have access to it from a
smartphone only, it is on another network.

This ray ID could tell clamav people what to look for.

If you have clamav running on multiple computers in your network and if they
sit on a single IP behind NAT, this may be the reason why you are getting
denied.

You many need to set up local clamav database mirror not to overload clamav
network with repeated requests for databases.

This says there's no database loaded on that machine, apparently because of
being blocked.
