UPDATE Question.

[gazoo]

Brand new guy, here. Just DL'd SpywareBlaster.
Trying to get the update, but, it says I can't get it, from the updater, although one IS available. It says to go to Wilders, to get it. Where do I go, @ Wilders, to get the update. I obviously don't know my way around here, yet.......
Any Help is appreciated.

(NEWBIES!!!....what a PAIN they are, HUH?)

[gazoo]

I don't even know how to get any REPLIES!!....jeesh...

Hey Gazoo....Welcome to Wilders

Replies will possibly come slower than you expect but they will come.

I have also moved your thread to the SpywareBlaster Forum.

You said:
"but, it says I can't get it, from the updater"

Would you explain that a little further. Is there more to the error message and are you attempting the update via the program ?

It says "An update for SB program is available, but cannot be DL'd from this updater. Visit http:/ xxx.wildersecurity.net/spywareblaster.html to obtain it."
Which one there, is the one I need?
Thanks.

[gazoo]

Thanks Bubba.

[Bubba]

Gazoo....did you get that message via the program or off of some Web site ?

[gazoo]

The SPYWAREBLASTER program.

[gazoo]

Bubba, I went to the site listed, & all that's there are what appears to be ads for other spyware

[Bubba]

Where did you download the SpywareBlaster program from ?

That is not a valid link you placed in your above post.

Did you possibly spell it wrong ?

It's spelled Wilderssecurity....NOT Wildersecurity....it is 2 s's NOT 1.

The one you gave leads to a site I'm questioning.

[gazoo]

I originally DL'd the SB program from PC WORLD.COM.
Gee, maybe I DID just misspell it.
I couldn't copy & paste the address, from the message.
So, would you know the correct address?
I appreciate you helping.

[bigc73542]

the spywareblaster site is here

[Bubba]

One valid address for SpywareBlaster is the link below.

This link---> SpywareBlaster 3.2 Download

Have you already installed the program from PC World that you downloaded and do you still have the link to that download ?

[gazoo]

Oh...I found it!
So...just DL the 3.2 version?

[gazoo]

Do I have to unistall 2.6.1....first?

[Bubba]

Yes....it's best to un-install All previous versions.

[gazoo]

Thanks, Bubba & BigC.
Here's the page/link from PC World that I installed from, originally.
http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/fil...d,23106,00.asp
I'm gonna uninstall that version, & get the 3.2 DL'd.
I find it surprising, that a reputable name like PCWorld would have a faulty link made available. Maybe one of you guys might want to check it out, huh?
Thanks for all your help & patience.
I'll let you know how I made out, installing 3.2.
Thanks again, guys.

[Bubba]

Yeah....it's a faulty link alright....it's the download for an older version.

[gazoo]

Damn......That's not good, for PCWorld, to be doing THAT!

Still trying to get 3.2, now.
I'm at MAJORGEEKS site...does it matter which DL location I do it from, there?
There are 4 USA ones...

[Bubba]

It's a personal preference....but I always use the closet one to me when downloading something.

[gazoo]

Thank you, Bubba & BigC.
I DL'd the most recent version, 3.2, w/o any problems.
I hope no one else is led astray, by PCWORLD.
I'll be more careful, next time.
Probably come to this forum. VERY enlightening. You guys know your stuff, & do it well.
Thanks!
