Thanks for your comments - .339 installed OK and running, but still can't see Legacy News on Home Page "Make sure you are connected to the internet and then click here to retrieve the latest news items.". Similarly, Check for Updates won't work as it tells me (eventually) that I need to be connected to the internet. Using Windows 10 vsn 1909, and only Windows Security running as security package

Windows Defender gives that response to any executable / installer that hasn't been "marked" to enable an "over-ride". You can make an alteration to Windows that always allows an installer to go ahead - but clicking to allow installation is seldom a worry or inconvenience to me, so I leave things as they are. Long ago (7 years+) I abandoned all the paid anti-malware products, and the free versions like AVG, because Windows for a long time has had more than adequate protection via its built-in products, especially since Windows 8/8.1/10. But in my opinion, anyone persisting with Windows 7 is foolhardy. I.L.

Windows wouldn't run it as was blocked by Windows Defender. Managed to override this by "run anyway". Updated OK, but won't allow any access to the internet when running. Presumably there is a setting in Windows Defender that needs to be altered. Tried a couple of them but these haven't cured it. Any ideas?

Same for Legacy News on the home page. I am connected and even restarted my machine in case there was a glitch. Is there a problem at the Legacy end?
