Did Ad-Aware go under?

Post by Thag »

Has anyone else here using the freeware version of Ad-Aware been able to get an updated definitions file? My last successful update was almost a month ago, and every time I connect it says there's nothing new available. It's got full firewall permission, and I haven't changed any connection settings, but it's not finding any new stuff.

I've been able to update it just now. I have antivirus definition version 0045.0000.

If you have an old version, I don't think it'll update. Try installing a newer version. It's either that, or I'm just thinking of AVG.

I just downloaded and updated Ad-Aware on a friend's computer yesterday. The update was timestamped the 20th. I would recommend uninstalling and getting the latest version, as has been said.

Got it. Nice of it to tell me it's out of date or obsolete.
