    My server (Win 2003) at work will not upadate past v4832. At home I'm up to 4839 with no problems so I assume it is not an eset issue. I have re-entered the password and we don't use a proxy so there are no problems there. The update process runs and at the end I get the message "virus signature database could not be updated. undocumented serious error (0x101a)."
    Any ideas?

    Is EAV on the computer in question installed in C:\Program Files\ESET\"? Some localized versions of Windows have that folder name localized as well. Even though it shouldn't cause problems, one never knows.

    Can you confirm or deny that the problem persist after a system restart?

    Thanks for the reply Marcos. The installation is in c:/program files/eset/eset smart security and I doubt that would be a problem. Updates have been working fine up until 3 days ago. I will try a restart in a couple of hours when the network is quiet.

    I had this on one of my machines, I had to boot into safe mode and delete all the em*.dat files in the Eset program folder, then boot back into normal mode and run an update.

    I see that the problem seems to have been solved, however, the ESET solution for Error 0x101a is here.
