I have got ClamAV installed. And recently when I have been executing the following command in Terminal:

sudo freshclam

I have been getting errors such as this one which I got today:

ClamAV update process started at Sun Jan 11 20:00:37 2015

Why is this happening? And why does it happen so much now?

This has already been answered in the ClamAV FAQs section here: http://www.clamav.net/doc/mirrors-faq.html

Information from FAQs section on this:

ERROR: getfile: daily-*.cdiff not found on remote server
For some reason, the mirror didn’t fetch the cdiff file. Freshclam can recover from this situation by trying the next mirror.
