Any Spybot Search & Destroy (Safer Networking) users out there able to connect for updates? Seems like they've dropped off the planet.

I've never been able to do it consistently.  I've had to download the updated definitions seperately then run the update install.

Edit:  Can't seem to connect to their site right now.

False alarm. They're back and now there are ten download locations to choose from.

Breathing a sigh of relief. :D

Some of their download sites are either sluggish or don't work well.  Others are fine.  I suspect high traffic may be the cause of some of the d/l probs.
