Inappropriate?I'm experiencing the same problem. I've done everything you told her but it has not updated the risk definitions yet. It seems there is a connection problem, but I'm surfing normally !?
Whatelse should I try? Or is there any problem with your update server?
Thanks,
Chacal
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?Hello Chacal,
Thank you for posting.
The definition updates may be getting stuck on an old definitions download.
Try clearing out your history and temp files from Internet Explorer, then try to download again.
If that does not work, follow the directions below to manually update your definitions.
Save the following zip file to your computer.

CounterSpy v3 Defintion Instructions
Unzip the file and move the contense of the folder to the Vipre folder in
C:\Program Files\Sunbelt Software\CounterSpy\Definitions\
You will want to replace all the files of the same name that already in the folder. Make sure you have CounterSpy shutdown during this process or the files will not copy over.
If this does not work for you, please contact our support dept and we will have someone work with you to resolve this issue.

Inappropriate?Thanks PerryB.
I've just replaced all the files as instructed and now it is working. but I had to stop NOD32 (ekrn) during update. I think you guys must have been working on it to try to solve it, but meanwhile I can handle it.
Thanks again.
I’m thankful
