1.5 web update

[rabbitchaser]

I installed vers. 1.5 on a laptop and I notice (unlike my 1.4 install) that when the program starts and checks for updates it leaves open on the desktop a dialog box stating that no update was found. I have the settings checked the same as the 1.4 install (different computer). The older version simply goes out to the web, grabs and installs the updates (if any) and then the Spybot scan takes over.

Is there some error on my part with setting up 1.5 or is this a change in 1.5?

Another question, when new updates are made for newly discovered "bad products", will those updates apply to all versions of Spybot S&D? I have problem sometimes keeping all the family computers current.

Thanks

Updates apply to all versions; especially the updated tools.dll and advcheck.dll updates do supply a lot of functionality to 1.3 or 1.4.

That the update dialog isn't just closing silently is to avoid confusion. Imagine people trying to update and the window would just go away again, that's not good style

Or are you referring to the option to automatically check for updates on program start? If so, we might need to pass an /autoclose to the updater still...

Does this still happen with 1.5.1.13 (just out)? If so, I'll add a bug entry to the project manager.

Yes, this is what I am referring to, when it is set to update, immunize, then scan by the scheduler

Not sure what the Build Number is, I clicked the About box under Help, but nothing happened. Just says 1.5 on the skin.

Let me know if I can check something else.

Thanks

Help -> About should do the same as clicking on the Info & License section on the left. Once clicked, the Info & License page should show a four-digit version number (starting with "1.5.1.12", now "1.5.1.13"). If you just have "1.5", that's not the newest version (1.5.1.13 got out only today, that's why I asked).

I'll check it myself asap though

edit: ok, I checked, it's really better in 1.5.1.13 now. I've both update options enabled (search + download), and it'll just go through the updates and won't stop with any dialogs to click away

I noticed that the lastest version (clean install) still doesnt have the latest colorblind skin option, as well as the latest Help files and description files. I say this cause once again, they were all offered to me on first update, after intinial install.

Not a big deal, just weird that the color blind skin has a date of 28Jan2005 and its still not in there. TeaTimer help is 25July2005. Other files are 2006!
