OldRelic,

A favor, from you please. Could you list the names, of these updates. Also, the dates of each. Might they be 01/28/05. Even possibly 01/29/05. Just curious.

Thanks,
CrazyOne

Mark UK, tommy o

Thanks for that. I was starting to think, I might have fell asleep while doing something, and that might of been the something. Don't laugh to hard, I'm sure there are/have been times, when you sit back and go "hmmm". ;-)

Thanks,

Oh gosh yes, CrazyOne... I've had many a day like that, LOL! Usually when I don't drink enough of the morning coffee...
Take care, and have a nice weekend everybody...

OldRelic,

If you would check the updated files {Modified Dates}, on your computer. You should have these dates shown. If you don't, that will definitely, make me go hmmmm. ;-)

Later and Thanks,

Do I have a corrupt SB that I'll have to uninstall it then DL a new file then reintstall it?

I just assumed that SB releases there updates different to different countries like UK or U.S. recieves theres before us Canadians.

OldRelic,

What I was asking you to do/check. Is open the folder at;

C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Updates

In the "Updates" folder (directory). Check the modified dates, of each of those files. The ones, that were updated.

The "log" you gave. Shows you where they are at. That's the "Update" folder.

Also, the "spybotsd.ini", and online.ini" file. If you were to open it with notepad, and read the contents. It would also show you, the latest update, for each file (date).

"Do I have a corrupt SB that I'll have to uninstall it then DL a new file then reintstall it?"

Right now, that's a No. I'll repeat No.

To your assumption, that's also a No. Everyone, is equal, in that respects. Updates.

Hope, that's more clear now. If not, I'll try to explain it better.

Let me know, and thanks,
CrazyOne
