Paul, I can and probably will increase the time interval, but please 
understand that the report is absolutely bogus. Arnaud Jacques 
(SecuriteInfo admin) himself uses my script and said he has no problem 
with even an hourly check as long as the signature files are only 
downloaded when there are changes.
