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/microsoftupdate/v6/vistadefault.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.

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.

The server had an OUTRAGE.
It's probably overworked and underpaid!
