I ran the update function right after installing Spyware Blaster, and my definitions are from 2002 - 5 years old. Why is that? New spyware comes out every five minutes, so what's the point running software with a 5 year old definition file?

When I try to run Live Update, I'm told I have the latest updates...

sorry for "spamming", but a while ago I stopped using SpywareBlaster for exactly the same reason...
