Ach - no... sorry - I made a mistake - the line _should_ be commented just as 
you've shown it. Uncommenting it prevents clamd from parsing the file.

Do you have a /var/clamav directory that the _clamav user can write its pid & 
sock files to? What user is listed as owner of the /var/vlamav directory? Did 
you read the INSTALL file?
