           and it continues like this since 18/11/13.

Reading the forums, I am not alone in this problem.  However, different people seem to have had different solutions.  I have tried changing the self update from '1-recommended' to '1.5.0.362', but nothing changed.  My subscription is on recommended.  I can force an update with the same result as scheduled updates.

The subscription status downloads successfully every hour which would suggest the license is ok, but the software update and threat detection data update fails.

What other solution could I try?
