the update loop is back

[Steffo]

The new version 5757 update keeps repeating itself and it doesn't stick in
my MSAS program (newest .615).
We've experienced the same trouble in the past and I know there's a fix for
it: could anyone please post the files to download manually to stop the
loop?
Thank you.

What you can do, is to clean the temporary folders (usually C:\Documents and
Settings\username\local settings\temp and c:\Documents and
Settings\username\local settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5 and
delete all the files in those directories and subdirectories). Then try to
perform the update again.



If it does not help, there is a manual update procedure. Follow these steps:



Right click on MSAS icon within systray and choose shutdown.

Right click and "Save target as..."

http://download.spynet.com/ASDefinitions/gcThreatAuditThreatData.gcd



Copy/paste these files to Program files/Microsoft Antispyware

Restart MSAS and "check for updates"

If the http:// does not work, try https:// instead..
