576217 2007-08-03 08:37:00 I am trying to update the definition files . I have been waiting for 45 minutes and counting .

I clicked the Update button, and there was a second or two of internet activity now it just says "waiting"

Spybot has just updated so I know that connection is not the problem at this end .

I just checked AdAware again and after clicking the update button for the umpteenth time it finally connected and started downloading the signature files . Before it finished an error occurred; "service error 6000"!

Then Adaware encountered another error and had to close . :mad:

I Don't want to have to download the files manually every time .

Is AdAware SE likely to be supported long enough to justify reinstalling it?

Is it a pig? I thought so.

Is SE long term? I'd say so, well reasonably. Enough to change back.

I didn't have any problems updating, I just didn't like its not very configurable new layout much.

576221 2007-08-03 10:15:00 Yup, should definitely stick to the 2006 version. I beta tested the 2007 one and :eek: Horrible! beeswax34 (63)

576225 2007-08-03 16:44:00 I dumped it on my smaller and slower systems as they got bogged down by it pretty bad .

I just went to AdBlockPlus and have been happy . . well, relatively happy . . but at least now I can block all that crappy stuff that F1 has on the screens .
