  So how are you bleeding it?  Your helper should pump the clutch pedal 
a few times and then hold it.  Now you open the bleed screw momentarily 
to let air out.  Now y'all repeat the process a few times.  At some 
point you'll be getting fluid expelled instead of air.  When you reach 
that point there should be motion at the pushrod and throwout arm.

   If you get a slow drip at the slave where the hose plugs in it could 
be the hose, with the fluid running down the hose to drip off the slave. 
You'll have to clean everything up so you can see where the fluid is 
coming from.  Did you change the slave because of a leak?
