Title: Slow Update
Post by: dw811 on August 14, 2013, 07:37:18 PM
I've noticed over the past 2 days or so,after i turn on my laptop and everything loads up,avast updates my virus definitions after 10 minutes and not when it comes up right away. Like today,after like 15 minutes my virus definition updates came through,it never takes that long,i suspected its the software updater,so i disabled it. Any idea what could be causing this lag in updates?

Update: After windows updates came out for this month,i had to restart my comp to apply them,and avast updated the latest virus definitions after only 4 minutes,so it looks like disabling the software updater has solved my problem,lets hope it stays like this tommorrow.
