Anybody Else Not Get an Updated DAT?

I haven't gotten a new DAT since the 25th, two days ago. Is this the same case with any of you? I know McAfee has been having trouble lately, but the past week hasn't had any late updates for me.

Neither have I so I wouldn't fret about it. Sometimes they go to issue a DAT and then withdraw it at the last minute, or delay it up to 48 hours sometimes.

Peter I just ran McAfee Virtual Technician at 3:58am Ohio time 1-28-09 and the results show as below:
DAT and Engine OK
Engine Up-to-date
Expected : 5200
Existing: 5300
DAT Up-to-date
Expected : 5506
Existing: 5506

I would think it should show 5508 but it must know McAfee has a problem with latest dats.

As of today, the 28th at 9:33 central time, there is still nothing. The situation is still the same on my end.

I haven't either, still at 5506. As amatter of fact, when I select manual update, I don't even get the circular arrow in the systray(Since Sunday.) Related or different issue?

Not sure whether or not that's an issue or just servers that are overworked. Keep an eye on it.
