Apparently the program can't contact the update server and if it does, it often times out.

This problem's been going on for weeks now...

225245 2004-03-26 08:22:00 You are not on your own. It looks like with all the current virus activity they are are a bit overloaded. You can go to their update site and manually down load the update and install it yourself. www.grisoft.com gerrypics (323)

This has become a frequent thread recently.
Overloading means you won't always be successful immediately from their website either - but just keep trying.

Yes, occasionally. When that happens I just try again another time. As previously mentioned, they must be under pressure from the steady stream of viruses coming out lately.

If you really get stuck after trying a few times to download check this thread where I got into similar problems -

Patience will probably win through though.
Good luck !
