Ad-Aware SE troubles
You might as well uninstall, because it's gone for WinME.
The Tea Timer can be controlled under ToolsResident check or uncheck. Did you check out SuperAntiSpyware free edition? It's a really nice alternative. Harry. "SSJ04 Mewtwo" wrote in message ... Just updating my situation. I've not uninstalled Ad-aware, just temporarily retired it. Now, using SpyBot Search & Destroy in concert with Spyware Blaster and the MVP's hosts file, I should be well and protected right? I stopped using SpyBot 'cause of that darned TeaTimer. It kept mucking everything up and I didn't know how to turn the blasted thing off. Fortunately, you can uncheck that during the install. I'm just glad that AVG's updates aren't doing the same thing. |

I'm not familiar with 'JAWS', maybe someone else is. May I ask why use this program, which apparently is interfering? |

Ad-Aware SE troubles
Harry, JAWS (for Windows) is a highly sophisticated (and IMHO, somewhat
expensive) 'Text-to-Speech/Screen Reader' utility made particularly for the visually impaired. http://www.freedomscientific.com/fs_...tware_jaws.asp Mart "webster72n" wrote in message ...

Thank you Mart.
There ought to be a way to provide assistance in this matter, but it's beyond my scope. Hope the poster gets it. Harry. "Mart" wrote in message ...

Ad-Aware SE troubles
Hello:
Over in the Win 98 general discussion group, they seem to be speculating that the latest Ad-Aware SE def files are for NT-based systems only, and have dropped support for Win 98/ME systems - even though it makes little sense to drop Win 98/ME support for Ad-Aware SE, since the users of it are likely on these older systems. Most users of newer system, such as Win 2000, XP, and Vista, have likely upgraded to Ad-Aware 2007/2008. For what it's worth ..... Cheers, O.J. "webster72n" wrote in message ... I'm still getting the same error message and suspect they dropped their support for WinME. I plan on doing without it. SuperAntiSpyware, free addition, seems like a good substitute. Harry. "SSJ04 Mewtwo" wrote in message ... Has anyone using Ad-aware SE noticed when the programs loads the last two latest de files have been corrupt? I've not change the way I've gotten the file nor the way I extract the file. Haven't change download managers so I know for sure that can't be it. I even tried two different sites with no luck. |

Well ... the definitions dated 05-29-2008 and retrieved from
http://download.lavasoft.com/public/defs.zip did not work on Windows ME (as mentioned above). Just tried retrieving a newer file dated 06-03-2008 from http://download.lavasoft.com/public/defs.zip. No joy,. Obviously, whomever is making that file available for download doesn't know what they're doing. Barb |

No use, Barb, they simply dropped support for WinME and I decided to do
without it. Harry. "The Moose" wrote in message ...
