Spybot freezing while updating? No more US Download Mirror for Spybot!

[mattjurado]

Seems like the US Mirror site for Spybot updates is no longer available. I am not sure if this is temporary or permanent, but I have found the Australia site to be faster than the Europe sites. Of course, I'm in the US, so if you are in Europe, those mirrors might be faster for you.

So, for those of us in the US, I recommend using the Australia site if Spybot appears to freeze while updating. If you wait a few minutes, Spybot will update from any mirror, but the Australia mirror is faster. You can also manually download the latest tools and detection updates here:

Please always take the time to backup any and all data before performing any actions suggested for ANY problem, regardless of how minor a change it might seem. Also test the backup to make sure it is intact.

Wow, they are mostly gone. I'm assuming this has something to do with the imminent release of SPybot 1.3 (in beta at the moment)
