I joined today, and this is my first time using the community forum. In regards to updating & patching in Secunia PSI, it appears I have a problem getting a patch for WinAMP3.x (in red) It seems to be a category 4 threat. I clicked on the blue arrow as instructed, but no installer appeared! I also ran a NEW scan and got the same results. If anyone else experienced my situation, how was the matter resolved?
Thank you.

Welcome.

Are U using the advanced mode in PSI? If not I would strongly advise U switch. Despite the dire warning from Secunia it is easy to use.

Are U looking for this update?

http://www.winamp.com/

If it still goes wrong what is the path to the vulnerability PSI has found?

FINDING A VULNERABILITY FILE PATH
=================================

To locate the exact file that the Secunia PSI has detected, use or switch to the ADVANCED interface, then :

1 Click on the + sign of the programme to "expand' it.
2 Click on Technical Details in the Toolbox to see the installation path of the detected file. (Copy (CTRL+C) & paste (CTRL+V) the Installation Path of the file back to the Forum if U are unsure what to do next)).
