    Default Problem with Update !

    HI
    First , sorry for my english but i'm french , so ....:o
    My question is :
    It is normal ti have just one server ( eon australia ) with Spybot 1.4 .
    When i try to update , i have only this one and each time there is no file to download !
    I tried 5 times to update between yesterday and today and it's the same thing .

    I look in the spybot's folder called Updates and i read in the files:
    [-Mirrors]
    EON (Australia)=http://spybot.eon.net.au/updates/files/

    [-Mirrors.disabled]


    Thank you for your answer .

    Wait a little while. It looks like they are updating the files at this time.

    The problem was also noted in this post:

    This is off-topic, but why Spybot didn't get new definition updates today? Normally Spybot has new updates every friday...

    Sorry for my bad english

    Hannu:

    It appears that something is wrong with the updates and/or the update process!!!

    It appears that at least some of the files on the download servers were changed from the updates of 2005-12-09. Also the manual spybotsd_includes.exe update file appears to have been changed since 2005-12-09. However, none of the changes are reflected either in the Announcements forum here or in any of the multiple language pages on the safer-networking.org web site that normally announce both the updates and available downloads (including the manual spybotsd_includes.exe file).

    From a technical standpoint the spybotsd.ini file that starts the integrated update process is incomplete and therefore is not presenting any updates to users (new or old).

    From this, I only can conclude that some error occurred during the staging of the updates or that there is something wrong with updates themselves that caused the publication of the updates to be stopped.

    In either case, I suggest that you just sit back, relax and wait until the update problem is resolved.
