People have been trying to update and having problems. You can get it here http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3550.html
The MajorGeeks site says it's 2.0.0.17 but when you check the file it's created on July 9th, same as 2.0.0.13 and when you install, the About says it's 2.0.0.13. Nick, where did you hear that 2.0.0.17 was available? Also, what happened to 2.0.0.14 through .16?
I got it at Majorgeeks and when it was installed i clicked 'Check For Updates' and all is well......i have 2.0.0.17 up and running just fine
Did you get a zip or exe file? I still can't get an update, the lists or even connect to the site (says HTTP 403). Jim
Hi Jim I got it from that site yesterday but it seems to be down now. It was an exe. file. Try getting it from here, http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/file_description/0,fid,23611,RSS,RSS,00.asp I test downloaded it and it seems to be the most current version. snowbound
Thanks S, that link worked, the file was 1,593KB dated today, whereas the MajorGeeks was only 1,438KB dated July 9th. As for updates using the BHOD "Check for updates", I still get errors about a PUD file and the BHO for SpywareGuard has a status of "Investigating" so I must need the lists too. At this point I think that I should just have stayed at 2.0.0.13 Oh well, I'm sure things will get sorted soon, thanks again, Jim
This is the BHOD log snippet which I just found... o First, it will check to see if there is a new version of the program. o Second, it will download the latest Definitive Solutions 'BHO List'. This should only take a few seconds. 2004/08/08 17:05:46.578 2056 @A MyModelessDlg.cpp( 124): Step 1 of 2: Checking the Definitive Solutions website for a newer version of this program... please wait... 2004/08/08 17:05:59.156 2056 @E CheckForUpdateDlg.cpp( 157): <::URLDownloadToFile(NULL, sPUDUrl, sPUDPath, 0, NULL)> failed with error <800C0008>: <>. 2004/08/08 17:05:59.156 2056 @E CheckForUpdateDlg.cpp( 15: * sPUDUrl is <http://www.DefinitiveSolutions.com/files/BHODemon2PUD.html>. 2004/08/08 17:05:59.156 2056 @E CheckForUpdateDlg.cpp( 159): * sPUDPath is <C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\~BHOD2Pud.html>. 2004/08/08 17:05:59.156 2056 @E CheckForUpdateDlg.cpp( 319): ::URLDownloadToFile failure code <800C0008>: <DownloadFailure>. 2004/08/08 17:06:02.203 2056 @E CheckForUpdateDlg.cpp( 394): EC_ skipped executing <CBHODemonApp::m_pBHOListDSI->DownloadBHOList("Step 2 of 2: Downloading the " "current Definitive Solutions 'BHO List' ... please wait...")>. 2004/08/08 17:06:02.203 2056 @E CheckForUpdateDlg.cpp( 47: ::URLDownloadToFile failure code <800C0008>: <DownloadFailure>. So if anyone knows how to decipher that, please let me know how to resolve it... Thanks, Jim
I just noticed that there are smilies in what I pasted from the log... that looks weird... Jim (I'll be quiet now)
I received an e-mail from Larry Leonard today as follows "Due to overwhelming demand, our website is temporarily down. If you're having a problem with BHODemon unrelated to getting updates, please let us know exactly what! We hope to be back up and running in a few days. Also, note that Version 2.0.0.17, with many new features, is now available at PCWorld at: <http://pcworld.com/downloads/file_description/0,fid,23611,00.asp> Thanks!
