SWB 3.2 manual updates don't work as per Tips/Tricks thread...

I've tried and tried to get the information in the "Tips & Tricks" to work, as far as manual updating. However, since just before 3.2 came out, there's been a problem that still isn't resolved. The files in the location listed in the Tips & Tricks article are either compressed or corrupt. They're far too small.

On my system (brand new 3.2 install):
ckdatabase.dtb: 38KB
rsdatabase.dtb: 294KB
sbdatabase.dtb: 267KB
sbdatabase2.dtb: 62KB
sbinfo.dtb: 22KB

In the location listed (http://www.spywareblaster.net/spywareblaster31/):
ckdatabase.dtb: 19KB
rsdatabase.dtb: 151KB
sbdatabase.dtb: 136KB
sbdatabase2.dtb: 41KB
sbinfo.dtb: 21KB

Also, these files are not just smaller...they're in a different format...again, either compressed or corrupt. When I open sbdatabase.dtb on my system, here's what the first few lines look like:

[Header]
Date=7/7/04
ListNumber=929

When I open the one in the update location, here's what I get:

HE3
(various types of non-text characters)

It has been this way for several months now, and I've tried to use the newer files, only to have SWB puke every time.

I've written about this problem before, but I probably wasn't clear about it, since the reply was always a link back to the Tips & Tricks thread.

Please help...I have PCs at my job, and our firewall won't let the updater through. Thanks!

Whoa. It's working now. What did you do, LowWaterMark?

Thanks!
