Not able to update TH 4.5

Quote Quote  Modify Modify

Just installed the new TH 4.5 release. The install went fine but I'm not able to get the update. When I try to update from the Tray icon, I get an error message stating 'A required .DLL file, UNRAR.DLL was not found'. followed by this dialog box: Unable to start "C:\PROGRAM FILES\TROJANHUNTER 4.5\\Tools\LiveUpdate\LiveUpdate.exe"
(notice the extra backslash after TROJANHUNTER 4.5).
This UNRAR.DLL file is in the install directory but LiveUpdate cannot locate it.  
When I try to update from within the scanner, I get the following:
Unable to run C:\PROGRAM FILES\TROJANHUNTER 4.5\Tools\LiveUpdate\LiveUpdate.exe, one of the library files needed to run this application cannot be found. (Notice there was no extra backslash after TrojanHunter 4.5 in the path from within the scanner)
This is on a WinME box.

Hi Gavin, still not working. I'm getting a different error now. The error says it's unable to move the update (function is not supported on this system)

This is a Windows 95/98-specific problem. Will be fixed as soon as possible.

Whew. It's also happening on my win98SE machine. I see that a trf file is generated in the temp directory and wondered if I could manually append it to the big trf file to see what happens, but wil let the owners set this straight.

I attempted to do what I thought the update process does. I manually moved the trf and the Updatelist.txt files from the Temp folder into the Rulefiles folder but apparently that's not good enough. After doing this and then opening the Scanner, I'm greeted with a 'Your rules are more than 2 weeks old, do you want to update?', so clearly there is more to it than this

I downloaded TH version 4.5, build 918 this morning.  The installation went fine but like others I am unable to get updates.  Running Win98se.  Here is the error message I get.

I haven't noticed Magnus or Gavin on the forum today; however, I assume they are continuing their efforts to resolve this 98se and ME problem.   Wink

Dp,
 
When you examine the UpdateList.txt file in the RuleFiles folder, does it look like this?
 
Cumulative20060322.trf 20060322 08 04 3320979
G20060322_0800.trf 20060324 12 08 27136
(all in one string in the file)
 
My G20060322_0800.trf file is 27 kbytes.
My Cumulative20060322.trf file is 3244 kbytes
(as viewed with Windows Explorer)
 
Just curious  Wink
