Title: Auto Update Problem
Post by: jimb11 on December 04, 2012, 10:05:01 PM

I use my laptop at some wifi hotspots but by the time I start up the computer and log in to their hotspot my virus definitions are out of date. Is there a way to fix this without updating manually? I have v.7.0.1474 with windows 7.

Hmmm... What are you saying exactly or, better, what do you want: that avast! is updated before you connect?

It does but only after 4 hours. When I first boot up in the morning it doesn't when I"m at a wifi hotspot because I have to log in to the wifi and by the time I do it will be out dated.
