| 167571 | 2003-08-14 07:32:00 | Hmmmm.............. Tried an online update and Adaware tells me I am already up to date, but my current def is OR150 05-07-2003 not O1R208 13-08-2003. I wonder why that is ?:| Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 167572 | 2003-08-14 07:53:00 | More mystery - On switching on my computer and going on line, I received a pop up box headed AdAware and containing the message to the effect, the previous update was corrupt, check for new files now. The previous DL found 3x tracking cookies, so don't know what was wrong with it, and the new file DL'ed a few minutes ago, found a further 2. The really strange thing was that after the first download, I had been to really secure sites only and therefore would have believed it to have been really difficult to have picked up any tracking cookies at all. Well never mind - whatever - we knocked the bast**d's off. |

| 167574 | 2003-08-14 12:59:00 | Not so apparently Kiwitas. My build is Version 150 and on following some links I found that Lavasoft/Adaware does not support build versions older than 181, and the new updates do not apply retrospectively. No warning either. Pretty crap way to run a service, but since it is free I don't feel inclined to complain too much. Point is, can I upgrade by loading the latest build release over the top or do I have to uninstall and start again. Anybody know? Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 167577 | 2003-08-14 22:56:00 | billy.........when you update adaware it tells you there is a new ver of adaware out, all you have to do is click the link and it will send you to the site so you can read about it and download it. | tweak'e (174) | ||

Anybody know? > > Cheers > > Billy 8-{) You are right with 1st paragraph! I think even Lavasoft suggests you un-install old version? But the new version was 181, and it is ok to install the later ver 183 over the top! It is very seldom that I can get the new ref file updates first time, and at times have shut down app,reopened it and got the update! Cheers,Kiwitas,;-) |
