Hello,

Did you click on "Update" and not just on "Check Status"?
"Check status" only tells you which files are up to date and if they have been downloaded correctly. "Update" actually offers new files and downloads them.

This has also been discussed in our forum: Spybot 2 update issue

Further did you open the Updater with a right click and choose "run as administrator"?

If this does not help please try to download the manual updates which can be found here.
Make sure you store them in the Spybot program folder:
Windows XP: C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy 2
Windows Vista or Windows 7 or Windows 8: C:\Programs (x86)\Spybot - Search & Destroy 2

Thanks! I've been having the same problem. Installing the manual update worked (with admin privileges)!
I tried running update as admin but that didn't do anything.

There is however still 1 update that doesn't update:
Includes\GoodBankScripts.sbs

As it went from 18 updates that would not install to 1 I'm happy. But I would like to know if there is a way I can download a specific update that will stubbornly not install.

The trick that we were given in http://forums.spybot.info/showthread...950#post432950 may work.

Note that if http://127.0.0.1:21321/start doesn't work, try http://127.0.0.1:21331/start as I explained in http://forums.spybot.info/showthread...972#post432972

I know i am late to give my feedback. Sorry. But i wanted to be sure what is the problem.

First of all i am using spybot 2.0 free version for personel use.

I am doing check status before update. And the check status is always showing that " The status check complete. 83 files up to date ". Even if the database is old. For status check is everything always up to date. But it is wrong. When i am pressing to up date button. If there is a database update, it is updating. But at first couse of i didnt carefully look at the date of database files , i thought it didnt do an update.

----"Check status" only tells you which files are up to date and if they have been downloaded correctly.---

So i think "Check status" not woking properly. Because for its , the database always up to date.

Thanks for your help......
