I was wondering if there is a way to update avast!'s virus definitions without being connected to the internet. I have a worksation that I use for 3d apps and Photoshop that I do not want connected. I use a powerbook for surfing and downloading files. Is there a way that I can download the updates manually through the powerbook and transer them to my workstation on a flash drive? If so, how do I go about doing so? Thanks alot!
Sure there is: http://files.avast.com/iavs4pro/vpsupd.exe
Download, save and run. 8)
Thanks. Where do I save the file? Do these files update often? If so, are they the same link (that you gave me) every time they update? Thanks SO much for your help!- B
You can save it wherever you like - just start it.
The files are updated as often as the ordinary (on-line) updates. The link is always the same - the target file is updated.
Cool…I just opened it and it saved automatically! Nice. Thanks for all the info!-B
