Defintions say they are up to date, but since yesterday both f-secure and windows security centre both keep telling me "Your computer is not protected". Why?

    Please try and download this file to your desktop:

    ftp://ftp.f-secure.com/support/hotfix/special/FSAV930-02/FSAV930-02-signed.fsfix

    Once downloaded run the file, It could take some minutes before the change takes effect.

    Hi,

     

    does the GUI show propper chars again?

    A aua-reset might be needed to clear broken settings:

    ftp.f-secure.com/support/tools

    Hi, after the fix it was showing the same odd characters as above. I re-ran the fix, then told it to check for updates again. Now it is showing virus defs updated at 11:11 (2011-07-08_03) and the error message has gone again, so fingers crossed. Thanks - if it comes back I may yell for help again.

    Hi

    I have the same problem. My internet status says my computer is not protected. My automatic dowload is ticked on but in the window Automatic Updates under Other Settings Virus, Spyware, Deepguard etc are 40 days old. (2011-7-11) but in the details window above this it says last check (today) was successful.I am new to F-Secure so this is the first port of call I am trying.

    Hi Sophie,

    this forum is in English, sorry!

     

    What version of F-Secure are you using?

    is the problem persistent or does it disappear after a while?

    what OS are you using...

    Mmmmh.

    Thought the problem was solved, but it's recurred several times since I last posted and doesn't seem to want to go away.

    Suggestions please.

    "Protection is not up to date" sounds like the database updates has stopped.

    If you right click the F-Secure icon in the systray and select "Open common settings" you'll see the latest downloads. What does it say?

    If any are in bold it means they have not been installed, or are being installed but have not finished.

    An old example:

    Ok. When is the latest download? In the list from window "Open common settings". Aquarius and Hydra should have todays date. If they don't check this:

    http://www.f-secure.com/en/web/labs_global/removal-tools/-/carousel/view/140

     

    They need to be both downloaded AND installed for the protection to be up to date. Bold = Not installed

    Yes, that looks perfectly alright. Weird!

     

    The yellow/orange icon from "The Protection is not up to date" means:

     

    Warning.

    Your computer is not fully protected.

    The product requires your attention, for example, it has not received updates in a long time.

     

    Apparently it must mean something else than the updates in this case. Unless someone else can help out I suggest you submit a Support Request and attach an FSDIAG file to it.
