Comment: I have been trying to update Ad Aware SE but I keep getting this message after about 5% of download completed. "The download definition file could not be read, please update again" The last definition I have is SE1R54 14.07.2005 Should I download and re-install Ad Aware SE ? Thank you Pibou

Reply: (edit)I had the same problem today, but after several tries all was ok. Servers might have been busy. Keep trying.

Reply: (edit)Thanks guys & gals for your replies. I downlaoded Ad Aware SE again and re-installed it. Don't know if it was the re-install or if a server problem was fixed, but it is working again. Pibou

Simply replace the defs.ref file This link may also help http://download.lavasoft.de.edgesuite.net/public/defs.zip hth Ceri
