Since installing ad-aware 2008 free have been getting message unable to connect, but everything but ad-aware connects including spy bod, is the ad-aware site down or what?

I too have a problem updating Ad-Aware 2008 Free Edition. My last update is shown as 24/07/2008. I tried on Friday evening (01/08/2008) and this evening (03/08/2008), and on both occasions the meesage "No connection download server. Check Internet Connection." was shown. I have a connection as evidenced by the fact that I can post to this forum. So there must a problem with the server??

I too am experiencing similar problems as Elliot57. Same error messages. I have utilized the Ad-Aware 2008 FAQs, which instructed downloading updates from lavasoft.com, turning off all security and antivirus software programs, and even flushed my DNS cache, all to no avail. Can we get a response from Lavasoft?

Well this is what I get just like everybody else.....guess the servers must be down!!!
An error has occured...
UPDATE - No connection to Update server
SUGGESTED ACTION - Check Internet Connection
However I last updated on 01/08/08 at 12.29.00 European time (CET) and the defs are 0108.0000

Yup, same here. Servers must be down. Hopefully someone from Ad Aware will give us the skinny of what is going on.
