update 5731 repeats

[mszablocky]

Every time I launch Microsoft Antispyware Beta 1 update
5731 keeps installing. Is this a bug in the latest
version (1.0.614)?

no need to reply. I should have read a little farther
back. doing the manual update worked fine!

I keep trying manual update, maybe I am doing something
wrong, but it just won't work.

Have tried all you suggested and it just won't work for
me. Must be doing something wrong.

Here is another alternative you could try, not guranteed to work:
shutdown Microsoft AntiSpyware from the notification area, uninstall
Microsoft AntiSpyware, navigate to c:\program files and delete the Microsoft
AntiSpyware folder, restart the system, then install Microsoft AntiSpyware
to a non-default location such as c:\msas.

Thanks for your help, but tried the other way again and
it has now worked. Thanks again.
