I am having difficulties connecting to both Spywareblasters and AdAwares Servers to get updates
At best I'm getting a very long lag otherwise I get an error message. Hmmm
Reloaded both programs no difference Frown(Note : NO updates posted! Confused)
I'm sure the A2 spyware program is in the same situation that posts almost daily...not seen any since the weekend ,now Tuesday.
AVG posted updates but thats the only one
Do you think this is an attack aimed at the Spyware companies servers? Roll Eyes
Their Home pages are giving nothing away
This has been going on for a week now (from messages elsewhere) But seems to be getting bigger affecting more users daily Frown
Can you tell us if you are getting your updates or not as the case may be.
Ps Manual updating produces the same result Frown

I updated AVG SE Plus, Javacool Software's Spyware Blaster, and AdAware today, no problem.

I use Mozilla but some things call for IE. So I was so unwise as to update IE with the latest patches. Now my system is badly scrambled. I can operate all right, but have to close everything manually and still it keeps rebooting. I think I should just use Mozilla-accessible sites from now on.

MS can help me they say but for a fee. No thanks.

Is resolved now was due to very heavy Internet traffic on some European servers, Due to some unknown reason. Confused Should be about 75-80% if normal, but was way down into the 20's Eek Asia is normally the slowest @ 30 to 40% average.
Here are the latest numbers with graphs. Can also see some of the main hubs current status from here Wink
