Hi Guys

I have Spybot 1.4 installed from a magazine CD. It works fine.

But when I go to download any updates to the system it says there are some. I select some fo them them and it downlaods them then says they have check sum errrors !

I had this problem with Spybot 1.3 !

Does anyone else have this problem ?

regards

i have just updated my spybot S&D 1.4 and it was fine. I used the XTeq Germany server and it was all ok!

When that happens you have to change the server. It's very annoying, but it has to be done. Sometimes you have to go though a few.

Its not wise to update spybot from inside the program, try to download updates.

Normally, it isn't a problem at all.

Every once in a while updating from inside spybot doesn't work, 'cos the update is corrupted at server-level or somesuch, then one have to switch server, and, if that doesn't work, download and update it manually.

It doesn't mean that updating it normally is bad, or that it'd break something.

@SnnY: that's what I thought I usualy don't have a problem with it and when I do i just choose another server no big deal realy I thought limesqueezer might mean you get corrupted data from the servers or somthing.
