What is the current SiteAdvisor version in Chrome?

I have two Chrome profiles.

In the first profile SiteAdvisor is version 3.6.4.1311:

In the second profile SiteAdvisor is version 3.61.113.2

Which version is up to date?

How do I update the old version to the new version?

This is on Windows 7 SP1 64 bit.  There is only one copy of SiteAdvisor installed according to the Control Panel Uninstall list and that has version 3.6.176.

Thanks

3.6.4.1311 as far as I can tell and I'm not sure why it should show differently in another profile.  If it's of concern I would ask Technical Support, it's free by phone or online chat and linked under Useful Links at the top of this page.

Hmmmmm ? It is also (3.6.4.176) in Internet Explorer 11- Updated 1/10/2014

It also shows the same Version numbers when I open the McAfee UI.

Could you possibly check the IE11 Version, and confirm the same? For I do not

use Chrome or Firefox..... Does your version show the same in your McAfee UI as well?

 

Windows 7 Service Pack 1 64 Bit also

Thanks

Well I had to shut everything down in Vista and reboot into my Win 7 partition to tell, but it's 3.6.4.176 in my IE11, which will reflect that in MSC because MSC is basically an IE web page.

The version number can vary a bit so as long as the software says it is up to date, that's what it is.

As always...Thanks Ex_Brit for taking the time to check.

Learn something every day, for I was not aware of the variation in Version Numbers

with-in the Different Browsers.

I new they could vary somewhat when it came to Adobe Flash Player, but not Site Advisor....

It indeed states it is up to date when I open Site Advisor, and click on "About"

Thanks for your replies Ex_Brit and catdaddy.

After your posts I remembered that in Chrome to get the About page you just click on the SiteAdvisor icon, rather than right-clicking as I'd been doing.  This showed that both profiles are running v3.6.4.176:

Further investigation showed that the reason that Chrome is showing different versions in the Extensions tab for each profile is because of differences in the McChPlg.dll file - one profile has v3.6.1.113 and the other has v3.6.4.131.  I'll follow up with technical support and see what the issue is and report back.

Hi drghughes,

            You are perfectly welcome, as I myself learned a bit myself. That the version numbers can vary in Browsers. In other words the credit should go to Ex_Brit, as always he is here to assist.

               We both know now that when opening Site Advisor, we have the most current version.

               I might add that when I open "My Add-ons" IE11, it shows 3.6.4.176 as well.

Kind Regards,

CatDaddy
