hehe, I checked for an update via ad-aware itself & it said no updates available but your link does indeed show a later build to what I'm presently using.

hmm, I've just found this, released yesterday:

Ad-aware 6.0 Build 181 Release Date: July 13th, 2003

Ad-aware is a free multi spyware removal utility that scans your memory, registry, and hard drives for known spyware components and lets you remove them safely.

Changes in Current Version:
Note: It is advised that you uninstall any previous versions of Ad-aware before installing
Speed – More comprehensive and up to 400% faster than any previous 6x release
Smart scan mode – Improves speed even further and has been optimized to detect content at the root level enabling fast and efficient maintenance scanning
Improved In-depth scan – More effective while reducing CPU resources
Improved deep registry scan – Faster with additional registry coverage that can detect dynamically created registry keys
Conditional scanning – Improving speed by allowing Ad-aware to decide when and where additional scanning is needed based on a previous detection during the scanning process
HOSTS file scanning – Newly discovered exploit that uses HOSTS file editing to facilitate browser hijacking has been countered with this addition
More efficient reference file usage – Ad-aware can now read and use more detailed information stored in the reference file
Improved Browser Hijacker detection – Better detection for known and newly discovered Browser Hijackers
Improved log file output – More comprehensive reporting for better record keeping

My webupdate failed, too. Still on build 162.

Much faster than the old one. Just loaded it at home.

You can't webupdate to 181. You have to download it. Supposedly from now on you CAN webupdate, but I haven't tried yet (and won't know until there's a newer build than 181 or one of the developers says for sure).
