Ad-aware problem?

Ascomdog (Elite) posted this on Tuesday, 2nd November 2004, 07:34

Anyone else experiencing problems with the latest version of Ad-aware? When I try to run it I get the following message...

"Error while loading the Ad-aware reference-file"

If I then try to update, I get the option to download the new reference file "Build:000001 26.10.2002, Date:26.10.2002". Shouldn`t it be 2004?

If I attempt to download, it gets to 5% but hangs there for ages & goes no further!!! Any help would be appreciated.

I had the same problem yesterday. Ended up uninstalling it and installing Ad-aware SE personal 1.05 instead, from www.download.com

The updates for that worked fine

Yea, I had the same problem too, about 2 days ago, haven`t tried it since though.

Should we all really be upgrading to the SE edition now then?
