Hi,mr.mark

Thanks for the heads-up on this

Good luck

 

update

Mr Mark. It's been three weeks since the last update for this
month for Adaware. Anything amiss

 

i did just read something along the lines of rumor that i don't care to pass along... perhaps the Ad-aware forum would be the best place to search for such info. sorry i can't be of more help.

 

Ad-aware update: 0R140 19.05.2003

 

guess it's not a rumor after all...

Lemme see.

What has new.net done for me?

What has Adaware (lavasoft) done for me?

 

good point

 

That's strange. I tried updating for two days now using update
function in Adaware and it kept saying 'No update components
available'. What's up?

 

Ok. just downloaded the latest update!
