NIS 2011 out of date with 365 days left to go?

Hi, an automatic subscription renewed by version of NIS 2011 last week.  It showed as having 375 days left but still said RENEW next to it.  So I selected Subscription status from the menu and synced with the server but it still said RENEW.  As the amount of days remaining were correct I ignored it.

 

Now, today, it shows as 365 days remaining (ie the previous year has ended) and Windows (XP PRO SP3) has gone all red telling me I have no Firewall or Anti-virus installed.  It seems like it thinks the current version has stayed as it is without being updated.

 

What am I missing as I thought syncing with the server was the answer?

 

Many thanks.

HI Garawa

 

The renew option is always there so that is nothing to worry about. I assume that you mean the Windows Security Centre is saying there is no AV or Firewall installed - try a reboot of your system and that should clear it.

Thanks, I never noticed the "renew" button before!!!!!!!!!!

 

Switched on this morning and low and behold, no issues with Windows security centre and no red warning icons!  Me getting 5 from 2 and 2 again!!  Cheers
