SpywareBlaster update problem?

Hi,
I lunched the update, and I'm getting the following error: "error connecting to update server" and then it mention that it may be caused by the firewall.

This is happening since yesterday. Even after disabling the firewall, I'm getting the error.

Or is it just the server which is down?

Any help will be appreciated. Jeremy

 

Hi Jeremy2

Try going into the Spywareblaster interface to Updates>Options then select another method of downloading updates.

Post back and let us know if u were sucessful.

Yeah... I'm getting the same problem too. I tried changing the download settings (using a local and remote proxy, direct connection, system settings, alternate downlaod method - any combination) and I disabled all antivirus and firewall protection. It still seems to have that same error.

The only thing I can think of is if it has to do with my router. All the other programs I use with updates work fine with a router, but could spyware blaster interfere with it in some way?

 

I have to connect through a proxy server to get out through my firewall at work in order to update. However, I cannot get this to work with Spywareblaster because it only gives a place for the addressort. I need to be able to store the user name and password for the firewall. Any ideas??

 

The update works now. Restarting all the services, I disabled on my PC. and reboot. (I don't know which one in particular, as I was playing around with the different things )

Any one can figure out which service is needed for Spywareblaster to update succefully, as I didn't have the problem with Spybot, and spywareguard?

Thanks
