Duplicated Download of Antiphishing Definitions?

[ Edited ]

I saw this in the Security History, not sure if it's a bug (I've just previously run the NRT and reinstalled NIS 2009)

 

As you can see in the screen print, version 20090623.006 (and many more before it) has been downloaded twice (downloaded, using, and downloaded again?)

I see the same thing in my log.  Could be a bug in the log; I only have the last definition set on my hard drive and the time / date stamp matches the last using entry in my log.

Re: Duplicated Download of Antiphishing Definitions?

Everything looks fine (green tick). I'm just curious whether it's using the latest Antiphishing definition (i.e. 'downloaded', 'using', then 'downloaded' again, but not 'using' after that.)

Probably just a small bug. If Main screen tells you you are safe you probably are

My "Identity" sub-heading has nothing in it; could other Users of Norton Internet Security 2009 check this and Post your Findings.  Thanks!

Re: Duplicated Download of Antiphishing Definitions?

My identity screen always shows multiple downloads of antiphishing updates, since I installed NIS 2009 back around October 08

 

 

Floating Red,

 On my Windows Vista NIS 2009 identity screen the antiphishing updates show, but I have a desktop with Windows XP  NIS 2009 and it doesn't have any entries for identity antiphishing updates.  I don't know why? is yours an XP or Vista system?

 

Thanks, Kevin

Hi, Kevin,

 

Many Thanks for getting back to me on this.

 

Mine is X.P.; symantec should sort this out for X.P. Users, don't you think?!

I don't know if it is an XP problem or something else.

In my previous thread, http://community.norton.com/norton/board/message?board.id=nis_feedback&message.id=57329#M57329, I've asked about this.

 

Then dbrisendine recommend to use the Norton Removal Tool to uninstall and reinstall NIS 2009.

 

After that, I got multiple entries for the same Antiphishing definition as described in this thread.
