The problem is that the files are created only when the first apple user 
logs in.  I even thought about getting a "good" copy of the file, and 
restoring it every 10 minutes or so, with chmod'ing it etc.  However, 
restoring a "good" copy of .AppleDB doesn't work right, and creating an 
empty .AppleDB folder doesn't work right either.

I really did try to make my life easier with cron -- but to no avail.

(lol -- I never did get clamAV to stay running, so I still have a cron 
job kill and restart it every 20 minutes.  It's been working like a 
charm all year.  Gotta love the low-tech fixes.)
