Sorry, I can't remember. I remember looking, and I remember going away without finding anything worth remembering even for five minutes, but I don't remember anything else. I seem to have a sort of mental Marie Celeste mystery just at that spot.
Ask me again on Monday.
Ask me again on Monday.

Ahh, you mean you will look it up again between now and Monday and pretend that you have remembered.

Nope.

So what then? Why tell me to ask you again on Monday?

Because, my gentle young friend, if there is one thing in like that is 100% certain, it is that by Monday, you will have forgotten all about it and won't remember to ask!

Gin.
Just an update, been running this on my own machines and some (cheap) clients, and it actually found something! It was able to detect and clean a real virus!
No complaints, really.

Yeah. The guy with the slow-disk server in my thread in tech support had a Symantec Corporate AV server that apparently stopped doing updates 16 months ago. I'm probably going to put his clients on Security Essentials instead.
It doesn't update through proxies.
Proxies? A cache server of some kind? Adblocking?
A web proxy for internet explorer or chrome or whatever. Windows update works through it. But Security Essentials can't seem to update through it. So you have to rely on windows updates to get definition updates. The admin can probably open up something to fix this. It might just be blocked through my proxy. But I researched it and others were complaining that it didn't work for them either.
