eTrust promo updating problem

the AV is no longer updatable via the internal updater,did they change thier ftp server or what? Anyone else having the same problem?

 

By logging into the FTP manually I can see the two updates, fi_w9x.exe and fv_w9x.exe. So you might want to FTP to ftp://ftpav2003.ca.com go to pub and download them and do a manual install. Since I don't use CA I cannot verify that they will not update.

 

It will still update internally with xp.

 

No problems here, minacross.
Running Windows98SE.
Showing:
InnoculateIt version 23.69.21
Vet version 11.9.9132

Checked logs, some failed attempts on the 13th, (Friday).

I've noticed if there's some problems updating , it tends to be on a Friday.
For reasons known only to CA.

 

hmm. Last time I had that problem it was because a trojan/virus was able to kill my etrust. Might want to use another antivirus scanner to scan computer in case.

 

perhaps some info here?

Hi, that has happened to me with the firewall and with a program like prevx or other registry control program because I did something bad with it. with prevx the first time I didn´t let the antivirus to read something and after that it did´t work anymore, until I formatted my PC. It happened too with process guard 2 FREE, because I didn´t let programs to change, and always appeared a dialog like the one you are showing, so that, I think the probelem is not with your antivirus but with any other program.(so that you have to be careful and not block it with any other program).

 

it seems that your 100% correct. I have this problem after installing/uninstalling of the latest version of Jetico Firewall.
thanx a lot
