That doesn't work. This bug was introduced in this
version; the problem didn't occur in the previous
version. The program is refusing to recognise that the
latest definitions have been downloaded.

Jenni,

1.0614 installed here and it did update to SDV 5733 today. Did it
manually. Did you uninstall the previous version, delete all of the
folders in Program Files\Microsoft AntiSpyware, and then install the
latest beta refresh, Jenni ?

This results in the same Error 1324 message for me.

Download this file and put it into the Microsoft Anti-
Spyware program's folder and run this instead of running
Microsoft's obviously broken update procedure.

What this will do is download the three files that update
the signature files.

Note: You may run this file anywhere, BUT you will need to
move the files it downloads yourself, if you do not run it
from within the Microsoft Anti-Spyware folder.

This should work until Microsoft fixes there's.

This thread isn't specific enough to be clear what's being talked about.

See Robin Walker's messages in .Announcements for a fix for the situation in
which build .614 fails to update definitions.
