Title: upsupd.exe is not updating the program !
Post by: MWassef on September 19, 2003, 06:15:20 PM

I downloaded the upsupd.exe file of today's update (19.9.2003, version: 0309-2), but every time I run it I receive the attached error and the program still shows the date of yesterday's update (9/18).  ???

May you perform a little test?

Try this url:
http://www.avast.com/iavs4x/vpsupd.exe (http://www.avast.com/iavs4x/vpsupd.exe)

Is it better?

I unistalled the program then reinstalled it again, then I tried to update the def. using the file from the above link and it worked  ;D
So, What is the difference between this file and the file at the website?

Seems we have some confusion with the URLs/files being posted to the websites. I'll try to solve this on Monday, when I get to the office...

All right, this should be OK now (for good I hope). So the original links should work for vpsupd.exe for version 4.1. For compatibility reasons, we're also providing vpsupd for version 4.0, which is to be found in the same folder on the server but is now called vpsupd40.exe

Hope this helps,
Vlk
