Archived from groups: alt>comp>virus (more info?)
I have Ad-aware SE successfully running on both a WinXP system and a
Win98 se system. However, the Win98 se system fails to update,
yielding the message "Error retriving updates". I can update manually
by going to the Lavasoft site, however this is inconvenient and
shouldn't be necessary. Any suggestions? I have no problems with the
WinXP system.

Thanks, Richard

Many thanks bassbag! Unchecking "HTTP Proxy" fixed the problem. I
have no idea just how it came to be checked initially! Auto update
works fine now and as I said, manual update always worked, but was
obviously less convenient Smile.
