Thanks to PA Bear for link to this software. So far I have used this with
the May definitions issued with the original download.
Anyone know why this software won't get updates?
Configured to our internal proxy, it shows "retrieving" in the status box,
but doesn't get past 5%.
We have a 512Kb leased line so speed should not be an issue.

TIA

Phil

How about asking Lavasoft? It's their software.

Thanks Ted
Sometimes the most obvious solution is the last to be tried
Yes this is covered on their FAQ
Looks like its our firewall preventing this
Downloaded separate definition file and did it manually

If it ain't one thing, it's another.
