| Thanks again, David.
| McAfee Worked like a charm :-)

| Please note that I didn't reverse the changes made to McAfee.kix in Notepad.
| Updating the other 3 modules is no problem.
| I only recently re-installed my OS, 'hardened' it considerable and am
| assuming that this may inhibit the function of the downloading process of
| superDAT using the original procedure. I also recall using the McAfee
| removal tool some time ago, this too may have been a causing factor.
| Anyway, everything appears to be A1 OK.
| As a thought, it may be beneficial for others adding the alternate
| downloading procedure to http://pcdid.com/Multi_AV.htm. It would complement
| and complete the already detailed instructions.
| David, my real-time resident AV is Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0.2.621.
| Would you regard it as superfluous scanning with the Kasperksy module in
| Multi-AV as well?
Thanx for the feedback Jean.
The personna BigBruva owns http://pcdid.com/Multi_AV.htm and I haven't been able
to
communicate with him for well over a year.
What I will do is update the PDF Help File with this information. Maybe what I
should do
is script this fall-back signature download as well.
If you have Kaspersky resident, then running the Kaspersky module is supurfluos
in your
case.
