Should be up now.

My apologies if the following are obvious questions but,

1. The latest download from CNET did not turn up to have Database version 4223, it is 4052 instead.

2. The scan result below revealed some Disabled.SecurityCenter (registry data) items, I'm curious whether these are false positives as well.

That's why we always recommend you update after install and before every scan, the set up files are not updated with each database, just usually with version updates.

Those detections are not actually false\positives or actual infections but rather settings which you have made and in some cases, malware also makes. So we scan those sections of the drive for changes which differ from default settings

Please see the link below for an explanation:

You can add them to ignore your next scan.
