I seem to recall in the past if I missed an update, it appeared whenever I updated. My last update was December 22 and I just updated to the January 5 update. Were the updates I missed (I think December 29) included with the January 5 updates?

Thank you.

Sincerely, Libra

In updates, there are two extremes: making everything available with each update ("full updates"), and making only the changes available ("incremental updates").
Spybot takes a middle approach, having two sets of files now, one for changes and recent stuff, one (actually divided into a bunch of updates) for the rest.
And even though the updates are smaller now (about one third than what it was a few months ago), they're in a way that makes sure that whether you skip one update or not, you'll always receive everything.

Thank you so much PepiMK. I appreciate your explaining the difference in the updates and letting me know I'm getting everything I need.
