    Secunia stopped working


    Secunia stopped working, it was OK earlier with a green notification. Then it turned grey, tried to run a scan and it says it wants to have MS Update installed and will not go any further. The notification is now red.
    I checked Windows update and there is nothing there to be installed.

    This is what it wants: https://www.update.microsoft.com/mic....aspx?ln=en-US

    Why is it demanding to have this installed ?

    I just ran PSI and didn't have any problems.
    I use PSI 2.0, and I'm guessing you use PSI 3.
    When I clicked on the link you gave, here is what I get.

    I don't remember ever getting this message before, and I went no further...I closed the FF tab.
    Maybe ask one of the security experts about this???

    Yes, I got the same warning when I clicked on the link I posted. Don't know why.
    When I clicked on the link thru Secunia, it took me to what appeared to be a MS site, but wasn't sure if I should go thru with the download, so stopped.

    Yea, that's weird...
    I wasn't sure you got the same warning I did...at least I know it's not just me for the warning to that link.

    I think this might be a Secunia issue.
    Take a look at these threads in the Secunia forum.

    Yes, I found this one also : Secunia

    Guess the only thing to do is let it sit and see what the Secunia site comes up with.

    Thank's for the link.
