    o_O Hello,

    after updating Dr Web AV today, Spider Mail is aborting everytime when booting the pc and making dumps. What follows are some of the error messages in the minidump.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------
    ** ERROR: Symbol file could not be found. Defaulted to export symbols for C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll -

    I've never seen this before, Dr Web has always functioned flawlesly until now.
    No new programs had been installed before the update.

    What could be wrong?

    Kind regards,

    PeterVO

    I got the updated drwtoday.vdb, but I never experienced this bug in the first place with Virus Chaser (despite the fact that VC uses a Dr.Web developed SpiderMail component). :doubt:

    How do you know if your DrWeb components/database has been corrected?

    I press "update" and it updated but no indication of what's being updated.

    Right-click on the SpiderGuard icon on the taskbar. Then select 'about.' The version numbers of the components should be listed there. Also, there is a Dr Web RSS feed here which would also let you know of updates.

    If you check the Spider Mail logs after each update, there will be two updates where the virus records for drwtoday.vdb will be exactly the same (i.e. no signatures were added). This is the corrected record, though I doubt everyone would be lucky enough to have seen it, since not everyone updates Dr.Web each hour.
