No antivirus updates since upgrade to 6.6.1
Since upgrading to OS 6.6.1 from 6.6.0 last weekend, I have not had any antivirus updates. Also, there is nothing in log showing that it's trying to update the AV definitions....

Similar behavior here. Upgraded from 6.6.0 to 6.6.1 on 01/11/17, got antivirus update on 01/12/17, but nothing since then.
After the upgrade I noticed ctscand was no longer running and clamd was running. Presumably Netgear switched antivirus vendors. However clamd stopped running on 01/13/17. Here was the most recent entry in the syslog:
Jan 13 06:15:24 Netgear-RN202 clamd[1247]: SelfCheck: Database status OK.
After that, nothing further from clamd. I noticed, however, something called freshclam is running:
root 2111 3.8 0.3 10304 6540 ? Ss 06:40 0:12 /usr/bin/freshclam --quiet
Also tried rebooting, and disabling, then re-enabling, virus checking from ReadyNAS admin page. clamd still not running, and no antivirus updates.
