happened to me at the previous update, but finally it came through the

What seems to be the problem?

If I understood correctly, its a server related problem.
A lot of patience in order, I guess.

One more thing, Richard:
You can manually update at their website, but that involves the danger of
trashing your definitions. That's why I didn't suggest it.
Silj has all the finer details on this subject.
Maybe he can help us out here.

The SR59 was an oversight on my part, Joan.
But where did Heather post?
I don't see it here.

That's the subject and time showing here and there were replies to the

For whatever reason, I don't have it here, Joan.
I surely wouldn't have posted otherwise.
Sorry about that.
As long as everyone gets the update.

No problem manually updating, Harry. The def file downloads zipped. Just
open your Ad-aware folder and rename defs.ref to defs.ref.old, then copy (or
unzip) the new defs.ref to there. Start Ad-aware and it should load with the
new definition file installed. If it doesn't, it's probably something wrong
with the Ad-aware installation and personally I'd recommend uninstalling it
then re-installing it.
Yes, the failure at 5% is clearly a server problem and by all accounts is
temporary. I experienced it myself, for the first time, with this update,
but in my case it installed on the second attempt almost immediately (rather
than several hours later).
If, in the case of this problem appearing to be permanent and a
re-installation of Ad-aware does not fix it, manually retrieving the def
file is the only real solution, and unless the download is corrupted there
is every chance of success updating this way.
