It's best to use MailScanner's update_virus_scanners utility then run the one that comes with F-Prot. The update_virus_scanners will be already installed in /etc/cron.hourly so don't run the F-Prot version too. The MailScanner version has a number of enhancements (file locking, timeout protection, etc).
