Sophos Anti-Virus Manually updating machines

I have read the following article:

Sophos Anti-Virus for Windows: manually updating machines using the IDE files

Due to company policy some of our machines cannot be connected to the internet. However I have been given the responsibility of updating the AV definitions manually.

The above article outlines the steps to follow to achieve this and it does work.

However my question is this:

After manually updating the IDE files I check the Product Information in the drop down list of the Help Menu.  Under the heading Anti-Virus and HIPS 'Detection Data' is correctly displayed, as is the 'Detection identities', corresponding with the information displayed in the IDE File table. Why doesn't the 'Last Updated' entry update?  The old date is displayed and is very disconcerting.  Anyone have any clues how to get this to change?
