Default Ad Aware updates


I have been getting messages that my database is 15 days old, now 16...
but when I click "Connect" I get a message that there are no updates
available.

I wonder if I should suspect something going wrong. Anyone else having
the same experience?

I bought and paid for my Ad-Aware Pro. The purchase came with update
privilege. I am entitled to them.

Try clicking the configuration icon then general button, right in the middle
on right is dialog area for 'Definitions' where you can specify manually how
long before your definitions should be considered in need of updating.

That's excellent. BTW to all: I found that I had failed to record my
username as registered with Ad-Aware and couldn't log on. So I wrote an
email and got an automated reply, and there was a clickable link which
worked to get me an update.

Then, this morning, my notification (saying my database was 18 days old)
was there and I clicked it and it did upload and install more
definitions. Curious.
