Updating virus protection without LiveUpdate

WHY? Symantec supplies a special program called Intelligent Updater if you cannot use LiveUpdate. If you don’t have a modem or Internet connection, you can get the updates by mail. You may also choose to download the updates from an online service or bulletin board. The Intelligent Updater program is available from several sources — phone numbers are included in the Symantec Service and Support Solutions at the end of this manual.

To install the latest virus definitions on your computer:

1.Download the Intelligent Updater program to any folder on your computer or Insert the disk you received from Symantec in the A: drive.

2.From a My Computer or Windows Explorer window, locate and then double-click the Intelligent Updater program.

The filename for Intelligent Updater has the form mmNAyyI.EXE, where mm is the month and yy is the year.

3.Follow all prompts displayed by the update program. The Intelligent Updater program searches your computer for Norton AntiVirus, then installs the new virus definitions files in the proper folder automatically.

If prompted to overwrite, click Yes. The files are being replaced with new ones.

4.Restart your computer.

5.Scan your disks to make sure newly discovered viruses are detected.
