Ok. So program updates are not seperate from virus definition updates? I see two different buttons, one for Update engine and virus definitions and one that says Update program. In my Settings area I also have the option to update both seperately where I have chosen to update both manually. I assumed setting both to manual would update manually, when I searched for the daily updates. I sit here and watch the updates every morning and this one is different - much, much, larger.
Is there anyone who knows how large the update is and why it is so large?
My point is I cannot spend an entire day updating this machine on my connection. If these size updates will be forced from now on I need to look elsewhere for virus protection. And that sucks because I really like Avast and have help spread the usage to many friends, colleagues, and family members.
