I intend to install another copy of avast on home comp. It is not connected to internet due to my vital study material, articles, patient data etc. I want to know is it possible for me to update it offline frequently? I came across a large update file (some 30mb) on avast site. But i practise in remote area & work on dial up or cdma 1x connection with very slow speed. It there any better way to solve this problem?
I guess there is no other way for offline update… :-\
Hi,
Sure, you can update manually.
But back again, you need to download it from : http://www.avast.com/eng/updates.html
This update will change by every VPS definitions update.
Download the update here: http://files.avast.com/iavs4pro/vpsupd.exe
Or copy 400.vps file from an updated avast installation to a USB stick and transfer it to the \Data folder of the off-line computer (having disabled the avast self-defence module first).
