615 Upgrade

[StuNun]

Have just downloaded and installed 615 upgrade and
experienced the same problem as mentioned in srcoinman`s
threat. Have tried Robin Walkers remedy of clearing the
Temp Internet Files but it is still showing version 614.
Have tried both the upgrade option and a clean install. If
anyone has any other ideas I would be most grateful.

I had to empty the off line content folder also, for the

upgrade to take.

I forgot to mention that I already had the option to

empty the off line content folder check marked before
deleting. I also noticed that after installing the defs
reverted to 5725 before upgrading to 5733. Is this correct
or should there be a later set of defs incorporated with
the later version?

No, it is not correct, because you do not have the Build 615 installer: you
have an outdated version.

615 comes with definitions 5735 built-in.

The installer for Build 615 has a Digital Signature date of 13 July 2005
18:44:35 GMT - adjust the displayed time for your time-zone. Do not use the
installer unless it has this Digital Signature date.

Yes 5735 also try this, go into the windows\system32

folder and see what ver of the GcUncompress.dll file is.
If it is older then 614 rename old and try reinstalling
the antispyware after you empty the temp files and the
off line content. Reboot, try the reinstall. Also in the
add remove for antispyware you can click the support and
run repaire

Thanks for the response. However, while I was waiting for

a solution I tried this:

1. Uninstalled MSASW.
2. Deleated the Temp Internet Files (including off line
content).
3. Deleated the Microsoft AntSpyWare Folder (including sub
folders) which were left after the uninstall but did not
venture to do the same in the registry.
4. Reinstalled.

Shortly after this MSASW told me there was a newer version
available in spite of my install being the latest file
downloaded from the web site. However, went thru the
update process and now all is fine.

Interesting to note the MS site tells me 615 contains
updated defs but mine showed 5725 19 July 2005 after the
install before upgrading to 5735.

.Then I must be missing something here. 615 was installed

on this system from the latest file available from the MS
web site. The new version would contain the updated
installer as a matter of course. I don`t see how you can
hope to install 615 using an earlier installer other than
by online upgrading which I did to 614. Anyway, the
installer shows the Digital Signature Figures you indicate
above.

I take this back. On a system which does not contain pre-existing
definitions files, the 615 installer installs some quite out-dated
definitions, which can be manually updated to the latest set.

On a system which has pre-existing definitions files, the 615 installer
leaves them as they are.
