Can't update to vs 1.2.8 because Malware Bytes has flagged the site from which it downloads as a malicious site.

 

Like a dummy I just clicked thru instead of hitting the exclude button. Now even after entering all the sites hit in the protection log as excludes it still won't let me update.

 

I dl'd 1.2.8 froim the main site. Ran the execute and it told me I already had 1.27 and it couldn't update as that would eliminate installed modules.

 

Can't find an update link on the eagle site.

 

At a loss. Any ideas what to do?

You can temporarily disable MWB but only partially. It won't flag new stuff but if something is already on a list as being evil (and just about ever .ru site is) then tough. It won't let you in.

 

Malware Bytes has saved my bacon on a number of occassions. My wife tends to ignore it and hit exclude. My PC is clean. Hers is trash.

 

So I am not going to disable it.

Thanks...

 

I'm going to give that a try.

 

Right now I'm leaning towards the problem being with the update log files being messed up as I canceled out of the update in the middle (I've got a 50MBs connection and dl'ng stuff at 240kbs is annoying as hell - but that's all I got out of the ed server).

 

Hopefully the command prompt use of dcs_updater will ignore that issue.

Thanks for the help guys.

 

Wasn't log files, don't really know what the issue was but it wouldn't update from within windows.

 

However, it updated just fine from the command prompt using the excellent instructions provided by tothesky.

 

And it seems from the command prompt I'm getting a 2.1Mbs download speed instead of the piddlin 240 kbs I was getting using the windows icon when it did work from there.

 

Again - Much thanks.
