| 263775 | 2004-08-21 11:47:00 | Tony: I"ve no idea if this is any help, but in case the single malt doesn't help with your mystification... I was mystified briefly by my update info, but it seems to have fixed itself. I don't know why/how - but here's what I did. (I don't bother with mirrors etc unless I can't get results from the programme itself.) When I clicked on Search for Updates, it offered me Detection Rules & English Help, both of which I ticked. Download came immediately. There seemed to be no SetUp next, so I checked my version info & found 8th August or was it 11th? Forgotten, but obviously not 20th. Assuming the download hadn't worked/finished, I asked it to Show Log. They were both there, but listed as Zip, which previous downloads weren't. I tried Check for Updates again. It said none newer available. I then decided something strange was happening, but got diverted by opening up a few segments of the Advanced version I hadn't explored before & reading their options. A few minutes later, I checked my info & found the date had magically changed to the 20th August. So I don't know why. There was no indication that anything was happening (unzipping?) in the interim. But maybe you could try it this way..after the single malt and some infinity-checking? |

| 263778 | 2004-08-21 12:13:00 | You're quite right about Spybot's own webpage info, Tony. I see they haven't mentioned any updates since 10 August . (Maybe too busy thinking about *The Most Beautiful Girl in the World* to remember to let us all know there..?) |

| 263781 | 2004-08-21 12:29:00 | > (Maybe too busy thinking about *The Most Beautiful > Girl in the World* to remember to let us all know > there..?) Can you blame him? After many years of unrequited love the fellow has done really well channelling his energies into Spybot. Let's not criticise him for a late notification people.... |

| 263783 | 2004-08-21 20:56:00 | Finally !!! :O After numerous attempts, and different download sites, I have actually downloaded English Help File 178kb and Updated Detections 401kb. Spybot reading 2004-08-20 How? ;-) Using EON and downloading English Help first, then getting out of spybot and going back in and downloading Updated Detections. What a pain!!! Had the same performance last time I updated as well. Marg. :D |
