When trying to update definitions my laptop shuts down. I get the blue screen of death.

The error message is "driver 1RQL Not LESS or Equal"

stop: 0x0000001

can anyone help?

Thanks

Hi mefeldstein,

There are several FAQ's on scans freezing, aborting, causing system shutdowms in the Lavasoft Support Forums > FAQ's > Ad-Aware SE > Technical section of the forum. I would suggest that you start with: Ad-Aware SE terminates or PC reboots during scan, removal process

Apart from those FAQ's, there are some suggested steps for scan freezes which may be of help: Unable to complete scan

Let us know how you get on.

Spike

There's also a lot of hits in google on those two error messages.

Hi mefeldstein,

Have you managed to correct matters by yourself, or are you still requiring assistance?
