I've been using this for over 2 years with regular updates from Lavasoft, that is until Christmas 07 when the updates have suddenly dried up? Is anyone else having this problem and is there a new version which has replaced this?? any help appreciated, RD.

If the uninstall/reinstall doesn't work, also check your desktop firewall settings to ensure the connection isn't getting blocked.
