    Why is it that I cannot update completely the antiviurs definitions of my f-prot anti-virus...it always says that the virus container is corrupted and even if i have already reinstalled it still same thing happens. I tried to update it several times already, but still nothing changes, couldn't be updated. :oops: :p

    What should i do then to correct this things out? o_O :doubt:

    I only have ProcessGuard free and WinPatrol plus v10. I already wrote an email to them, but still waiting for their reply. :cautious: :blink:

    Take a look over on their FAQ's for the Updater problems.

    They have the "Unable to open registry for writing" and the "Virus signature files are corrupted" problems listed.

    If you still need help contact Frisk support via their web form.

    I have experienced the same symptoms. Following their support advice, I deleted the .def files and *eventually* managed to get an update. The error occasionally re-appeared though.

    It's too late, I have already uninstalled and removed f-prot on my machine. When I visited their help section it suggest to edit some registry to enable something on using their antivirus. I have no way to do this, coz other AV can be installed easily without resorting on that thing. :p :oops: :blink: :ouch:
