AB3 at the moment doesnt download latest updates. It simply
has 'Check for Updates'. This has occured over last couple of days.
Any issues out there?

I've been able to get abv2 updates anywhere I have a net connection. But
with v3, I can get it off my home dsl, can get it from work via the proxy,
but can't get it at my friend's house over his cable modem. This is not a
new issue, it's bombed every time I try to update v3 from his house for
the past few weeks.

If the problem is persisting for weeks on your friend's computer, the cause
is likely security software he's running. Depending on the security
settings with various tools, internet access can be blocked for all
programs that aren't known web browsers. To get around this, you need to
configure the security tool to allow AB to get through. The way to do this
varies with the different security tools, so you'll need to check the
documentation for the tool. If you need to specify website addresses to a
bypass list, be sure to add the following list: wolflair.com,
lonewolfdevel.com, armybuilder.com, and datafilesrus.com. These are the
various sites that are commonly accessed by AB for licensing and updates
retrieval.

It wasn't his computer, but his network. I've been in between dsl
connections (installing a new one) and so would go to his house to leech
some net. abv2 would update just fine but abv3 wouldn't. Our dsl is up at
home now so it's no longer an issue, but it sounds like it could have been
your ISP that was contributing to the problem too at some level.

In any case - i'm back up and updated - yay!

Our ISP problems began on Sunday. If the problem at friend's house was
truly "persisting for weeks", then it was due to local network
configuration issues and not our ISP problem. But the important thing is
that you're now up and running smoothly. :-)
