    Hi Nathan,

    The advisory has worked for 8 out of my 10 clients.

    However I have 2 clients where either the SEC or Control Centre will no longer download updates.

    Basically my SEC last updated at 2114 last night. (BST)

    Since then I have been getting the "Threat Detection data update failed" (80040404) ,  "Software Update failed" (80040401) & "Delivery failed for software subscription......" (80040406)

    I have spent most of the day troubleshooting and investigating these errors just in case they had nothing to do with this issue.

    However I have had no joy.   It was only when my colleague m,entioned that they were getting the same issue on another server that I realised it MUST be related to this issue.   

    I followed the advisory to the letter, and as mentioned above it has worked on the majority of my clients,  however I'm still stuck with 2 clients who can not get thier AV updated.

    Regards,

    dreec
