    Hi all.

    I see that a few patches were published for 14.3 RU7 (I didn't know).

    Does anyone have a link to 14.3 RU7 Patch 3 (14.3.9734.7000) English x64 ?

    Thanks.

    Is no one else having a problem using LiveUpdate to get new definitions?

    @darkrats
    Update SEP.
    Latest support for x86: 14.3.8268.5000 - RU5 (updates normally)
    Latest support for Windows 7: 14.3.9681.7000 - RU7 (updates normally)

    Since you run Windows 10 latest is a good choice
    If you run into strange issues updating to a newer version you should run latest CleanWipe first (included in full version packages)
    I happened to have a VM with same version installed and same issue as you report, a newer version is the way to go.

    If you have any exclusions added that you rely on, make backup first.
    They are just as easily imported to your updated version.

    I found out that 14.2 has finally reached "end of life". I updated to 14.3 and now everything works.
    Thanks for the link to the definitions. I tested them out on my new install, and they also work very well.
    By the way, does anyone have a backup AV in mind should a different one ever be needed?
    I recently started testing AVG, but thankfully, now I can stay with my favorite, Symantec Endpoint Protection.
    There's finally peace in my digital kingdom.

    I have two questions.
    Is there a point to use dark network client when you have "allow Insight lookups for thread detections" option enabled?

    What advantages/disadvantages dark network client has other than localized virus definitions?

    I used 14.2 version for a long time, and had it installed as standard/typical user, simply put I didn't care(of course i had telemetry and pseudoanalyzed data sending disabled), it worked fine. Then had to update it to the newer version so i found this thread and it got me thinking more about the privacy side of things, maybe I shouldn't have found it and remained blissfully ignorant so I wouldn't be asking stupid questions, btw, thanks in advance for the answer.
