bogus-virus-warnings-cf

I use RDJ to update rule sets, I only run it once a day.  On the run for the 
31st of March, RDJ reported:

RulesDuJour Run Summary on cpollock.localdomain:

The following rules had errors:
Tim Jackson's (et al) bogus virus warnings was not retrieved because of: 403 
from http://www.timj.co.uk/linux/bogus-virus-warnings.cf.

clicking on the link and opening with Mozilla still shows a 403 - Permission 
Denied.  Anyone else having problems getting this update?

Yes, I've been corresponding with Tim about it.  Due to abuse such as
some people doing GETs as often as once per second, he's had to rate
limit the server.  At present you should be able to do one HEAD and one
GET per IP address per day.  He said he may remove the limit on HEADs
when he sees how it all responds.
