[Macpartners] Virex 7.2.1 fails to eUpdate

Scenario for two Macs both running 10.2.6, one a G3, one a G4.

Start Virex 7.2 brand new program, just installed with a DAT file 
dating back to April 16, 2003.
Click the eUpdate button.
There is a prompt for Administrator password. I type it in.
The barbershop tube begins to rotate as Virex reaches out to the NAI 
site for its new DAT file.
Then a minute later an error message pops up: "Virex is unable to 
install the eUpdate. A problem has prevented the eUpdate from 
installing. Please try again later."

When I try again later the same thing happens: prompt for a password, 
then a lengthy download, and unable to install.

By the way, I just tried to eUpdate on my own Mac, which had a DAT 
file from Aug. 13, 2003. This time the eUpdate worked fine and 
installed the latest file.

Can anyone help?
Thanks,
