It seems to get stuck at 5% download. Any ideas? I couldn't find anything about this on Lavasoft's Web site. I thought it had a public forum too.

Re: Unable to download Ad-Aware SE v1.06r1 definit Same thing happened here. Suspect it was their download being overwhelmed by all the requests.
Patience and persistence. |

Re: Unable to download Ad-Aware SE v1.06r1 definitions This seems to be coming a regular issue with Lavasoft servers,they are missing their target of Zero snafu's with them by a country mile:(
LSMike,the problem is getting worse !
Just out of curiosity dose anyone experiencing direct updating problems use the paid verions(Pro/Plus) of the software ? |

A link for anyone who wants to download manually. Just unzip the file defs.ref and copy it to C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-Aware SE Personal |

See this thread: »Re: Lavasoft Ad-Aware SE Personal?
Thus far, each update causes a percentage of users a problem. This is the fourth time in as many updates. It just depends on which update server you happen to hit. It's like Adaware's version of russian roulette.
Hopefully LSMike will carry this message back to the powers that be and implement a simple user selectable server feature when the Adaware default server simply does not work properly. |
