Can't connect to server?

I just d/l'ed 1.5.2, because I was "unable to connect to server" with 1.4, and figured, hey, why not upgrade? Well, I've gone into Kerio and made absolutely sure all the entries marked spybot anything are trusted across the board, and now durning my install I get a "receiving..." message, but then it just times out. Is it me or the servers? I kinda already uninstalled 1.4, and I'd sure hate to be Spybot-less...
 
Connection times out for me as well....

But I can ping the server successfully from cmd. Tried turning off my Firewall temporarily as well, but to no avail.
 
Can't Connect To Server

I'm experiencing the same problem.

Also, when I click on the subheadings "Home" "Support" "Download" "Donate" in this Forums link, nothing happens--they are "dead?"
 
Update Server Down?

I think there update server for Spybot period is down because this just started for me today Monday February 25 2008 10:32PM. Also there website is down man i sure hope there going to bring it back up
 
server down?

And I've been trying for hours now to find somewhere to download 1.5 from as my 1.4 got corrupted, only now to find that Safernetworking just isn't there - or anywhere, so having reinstalled 1.5, I can't run it as it crashes without having any updates!

Big deal.

Also uninstalling 1.4 - didn't, properly, and neither did 1.5. Both Uninstalls left most of the prog there on the drive, and one of them crashed the PC completely to a reboot all by itself!

I DO like the line at the bottom of this page - "Contact us" - if only we could! There appears to be no known way of contacting them. Dead to the world, it would seem......

Same problem

I tried to update yesterday, 25 Feb, and got the message 'cannot find server' and had to abort. Same today.
Apparently I don't have permission to access the safer networking page either!
I now have no version of Spybot on my PC.

Can anyone suggest a solution, please?
 
Download updates failing

Can download 1.5.2 Ok, BUT since the prog can't get any download update files, it can't run!

And there isn't any longer any list of update sites - where has that gone?
 
Any news?

What be the latest?

Have installed v1.5.2.20, immunized but can't run scan until I download / install detection updates.

Is there a location elsewhere and I can download detection updates manually?
 
Server move

Because of the current problems with our hoster 1&1, we just decided to prepone the planned move of our web server www.safer-networking.org to a new hoster and to do it right now.

So the site will be back soon. DNS records will take a while to be updated world-wide, but we will try to do the move as smooth as possible.

Yeah, did untick the box and so installed no problem, thanks for link, scan was very short...not sure it did everything...hmmm :sad:
 
Hello,

Please run Spybot - Search & Destroy and switch to "Advanced mode" via the menu bar item "Mode" and select "Settings" --> "File Sets" in the left bar. There, please right-click somewhere into the list and choose "select all available checks".

Best regards

Thanks, the scan is now running through everything and taking longer as I would expect. Much appreciated.:bow:

Is this something that changed in v1.5?
