Outdated Foundations

Hello,

I am currently experiencing some issues with my Kaspersky antivirus. It tells me that the definitions are significantly outdated and that I need to update them, but the problem is that after numerous attempts, nothing happens; the loading seems to progress normally, but it always gets stuck around 39, 40, 45...
After consulting other topics, I found that this might be a date issue, as the release date is 01/07/2010. (O.O') Last year, while my license is from this year, so I don’t understand. I changed my computer's date and everything returned to green, perfect, but the update still does not complete, and I can't just stay on a date from last year. What should I do?

And while I'm at it, when I perform a full scan, it always indicates one or more files that are password protected even though I have never done anything; I don’t even know how. Is this normal?

My version: 11.0.400
I am on Windows XP
My computer was being repaired due to a disk problem or I don’t know what... Could there be a connection?

Thank you for your attention.

    Hello,

    We are going to do a little diagnostic of your PC for that:

    ==> Download ZHPDiag (by Nicolas Coolman)

    ==> if that doesn't work, try downloading it here

    ==> Save it on your Desktop.

    Once the download is complete,

    ==> If you are on Vista/Seven, make sure to right-click and run as administrator.
    click next to start the installation in the window that opens.

    ==> For XP, launch ZHPDiag.exe and click next to start the installation in the window that opens.

    ==> Click on the screwdriver in the top right (options) and check all the option boxes.

    ==> Click on the magnifying glass to start the scan.

    At the end of the scan,

    ==> Click on the camera or diskette and save the report on your Desktop.

    To send it to me, click on this link:

    http://www.cijoint.fr/

    ==> Click on Browse and find the ZHPDiag.txt file

    ==> Click Open.

    ==> Click on "Click here to upload the file".

    A link of this form:

    will be added to the page.
