Already at 120815-2
« on: August 15, 2012, 05:43:11 PM »
Last night, I was at 120814-1. This morning it jumped to 120815-2 (I was expecting 120815-0).

I just wanted to confirm that this is normal? Thanks

If you haven't been on-line for a while and other virus definitions have been released then the incremental nature of the avast auto update will get all of the intervening updates, so that your avast virus definitions are fully up to date.

This is normal.

Yes very busy as 120815-3 has also been released, but not yet on the update history page.

Well,  I'd like to see also a 120815-4 today - since I've submitted a false positive involving a (pretty irrelevant) Win XP file marked as PUP during a quick scan ;D
