About once a week when using PS3 i get the little updater icon appear and it says uploading updates, the thing is it always stays at 0% and never updates anything but im sure it slows my pc down, i cant even get rid of it as when i press cancel it just stays there until i reboot :(

Does anyone else have this problem or does theres update ok.

I would like to know how to disable it if it doesnt actually update anything.

Before you ask no i havent checked adobes site, but i will soon , just checking first here if anyone else has this issue :thumbup:

Are you running a firewall?Either Windows firewall or another one?If you are, then maybe it is blocking the Adobe Updater from accessing the internet.
I use Sygate Personal Firewall, and i've "allowed" the updater to access t'internet, so i don't get any probs with mine.

I use kerio firewall but usually if theres something trying to access i get given the option to block/allow etc but with the updater nothing happens at all?

I'll have a look at the settings to see if it is being blocked. :)

I had that problem and I unticked the box that said 'download only when internet connection is idle' and it finally started downloading.:)

Cheers SW but for some reason i only get the main box, the 'pause and cancel' buttons and the progress bar which always remains at 0%

I get no text or info about what update i should be getting?

Have there been any major updates that are needed do you know?

I went to there site and thee help pages but couldnt find any info on it :(

Since I have been using CS3 I don't think there has been anything major.

Ok 3 months on and finally i have some update action going on lol :D

Havent a clue why but i was just going to shut it down as i usually do when i noticed this time the download box was different, its the same as what SW had posted(it has never showed up for me before) so i unticked the box and it downloaded about 20 updates lol

Very weird but at least its now updating :thumbup:
