Linksys router WAG54G and updates of antispyware

Nov 18, 2005 1 Replies

I have a Linksys router set up with my PC's Ethernet adapter and it works fine for internet connection. It can access the websites and Outlook Express emails. It can get updates for Computer Associates EZ Anti-virus. But it cannot connect to all my antispyware programs such as Ad-Aware, Spybot Search and Destroy, SpywareBlaster, SpywareGuard LiveUpdate and Bazooka. It says cannot access or cannot connect.



I used to be able to update when I was on the Alcatel USB ADSL modem. Reverting to Alcatel allowed me to connect to websites and Outlook Express as before but not the antispyware updates.



TIA for any ideas.

Problem solved.

I found that I could not connect for updates because my EZ firewall Internet Security Zone was somehow changed to High. Reverting to Medium allowed updates to pass through.
