Ever since Friday (3/24), I cannot AutoUpdate. I have followed all advice on this forum including removing old versions of java and reinstalling current version. I have uninstalled and reinstalled a dozen times with both the 4.2 MB and the 2.8 MB installers. I have scoured my Hard Drive and registry for remnants of Lavasoft and AdAware after the unistalls to try to resolve this with with no success. I have a clean system with no other problems. My firewall (ZA) is properly configured to allow the updates. When I DL the updates manually they work fine. I have attached my Hijackthis log (change ext from bmp to log - I had to change extension to Upload the file) and system info (nso) file. Any help that could be provided would be much appreciated as I have used this product for years and never had a problem until now.

Could the people who are still having trouble post the dns servers they are using?
run:
ipconfig /all
to see your dns servers.

All I was going to do is check the servers, nothing was fixed by me. But I think I may have found the problem, I will let the staff know.

Well it work once. It hung at 5% for longer than usual and returned "No updates Available", but when I retried it went back "Error retrieving update" again.

I think I have found the problem, I left a message for the staff, it should be corrected once one of them sees it.

I re-installed Ad-Aware which did not solve the update problem. My definition file is now SE1R148 29.1.2007. I originally installed Ad-Aware a year ago without any update problems until a few days ago. It appears to be a system problem. Will a solution be posted in this forum?

bonjour

today i try to update definition file... and it works: SE1R163 26.03.2007 downloaded and installed correctly!!!

yesterday i have changed my dns settings (from 208.67.222.222 to 151.99.125.1) because i noted a dns error in the update log file... and i solved the problem "error retreiving update".....

today after download and install the SE1R163 definitions i try to set dns to the previous 208.67.222.222 (only for curiosity)... result: again the "error retreiving update" problem!!!

i dont understand what ever happened!!!

Come on Lavasoft! This problem is lasting far too long. When are you going to correct it.

Tried all suggestions above, no luck. When I run ipconfig/all, the black screen with numbers flashes for a second, then disappears.

This is my third time trying to post this note: as far as I can tell, it is timing out and crashing before posting.

It works on my office machine. I will have to try again at home tonight. I will follow-up if I still have problems.

Thanks. :unsure:
