Can no longer update MWAV’s eScan toolkit.

I recently wanted to run this program, so I went to run Kavupd and the dos like box pops up but it says “initialize failed, press any key to continue” or something along those lines. I tried deleting the one I had and re-extracting the whole thing but it still does not work. So was the plug pulled on this update server or what? Anyone else run into this problem? Thanks.

 

same here matt. would be happy if anyone knows why

 

what version are you using?

 

4.4.7 i think the last free version that does scan and clean.

 

+ this is what i get when i try to access mwavscan.com

eScan AntiVirus Toolkit Utility

Internal Error!!! This could be because of incorrect system date setting...

 

download the latest version and then create a new folder. Extract everything into the new folder. Then grab mwavscan from your 4.4.7 folder and copy it into the new folder. Now run kavupdate in the new folder like you normally would then run mwavscan in the new folder.

Everything should update just fine now and you should still be using 4.4.7

 

yes it has updated. now running scan clean so far so good. i have also noticed that it creates a new folder called Bases_X located in the same place as the previous bases folder. thanks for helping

 

no problem
