12. AVG Updates

Keeping your AVG up-to-date is crucial to ensure that all newly discovered viruses will be detected as soon as possible. Since AVG updates are not released according to any fixed schedule but rather in reaction to amount and severity of new threats, it is recommended to check for new updates at least once a day. Checking every 4 hours will guarantee that your AVG Virus base is kept up-to-date also during the day.

12.1. Update Levels

AVG offers two update levels to select from:

· Definitions update contains changes necessary for reliable anti-virus protection. Typically, it does not include any changes to the code and updates only the definition database. This update should be applied as soon as it is available.

· Program update contains various program changes, fixes and improvements.

When

scheduling an update , it is possible to select which priority level should be

downloaded and applied.

12.2. Update Types

You can distinguish between two types of update:

· On demand update is an immediate AVG update that can be performed any time the need arises.

· Scheduled update - within AVG it is also possible to

pre-set an update plan .

The planned update is then performed periodically according to the setup configuration. Whenever new update files are present on the specified location, they are downloaded either directly from the Internet, or from the network directory. When no newer updates are available, nothing happens.

12.3. Update Process

The update process can be launched immediately as the need arises by the Update

now

quick link . This link is available at all times from any

AVG user interface dialog.

However, it is still highly recommended to perform updates regularly as stated in the update schedule editable within the

Update manager

component.

Once you start the update, AVG will first verify whether there are new update files available. If so, AVG starts their downloading and launches the update process itself.

During the update process you will get redirected to the Update interface where you can view the process progressing in its graphical representation as well as in an overview of relevant statistic parameters (update file size, received data, download

speed, elapsed time, ...).

Note: Before the AVG program update launch a system restore point is created. In case the update process fails and your operating system crashes you can always restore your OS in its original configuration from this point. This option is accessible via Start / All Programs / Accessories / System tools / System Restore.
