  Anne,

   Just for the record, I just installed the base packages of clamav, clamav-db using
the rpmforge repo on a test machine. The option ...

# Send the RELOAD command to clamd.
# Default: no
NotifyClamd /etc/clamd.conf

 Is enabled by default. So you did by no means break it. That is it's expected behavior.
Also please not that in  /etc/cron.daily/freshclam you will have the same option enabled,
as follows

 /usr/bin/freshclam \
    --quiet \
    --datadir="/var/clamav" \
    --log="$LOG_FILE" \
    --log-verbose \
    --daemon-notify="/etc/clamd.conf"

  So no you did not break it. it was turned on by default.

Brian
