So I go to update, and it tels me no updates available. The ref file I have is 26-10-04, and I look for updates weekly. How am I missing it?

Similar with Spybot....

But SpywareBlaster does update!

oldfogey,

The last update for Spybot S&D 1.3, 1.4B2(public), was 19/03/05.

p.s. If I'm not mistaken, the 'ref' file was used for Ad-Aware 6, and the 'def' files are for the Ad-Aware SE.
