FTP site to down load updates
« on: May 04, 2011, 06:31:34 PM »
Is there a FTP site that I can down load all the updates from other that the standard HTTP site?

Asyn – I’ll see if I can explain. I have 3 systems at home 1 is connected to the internet the other 2 are not (IP have been blocked for internet connection). If there was a FTP site I could use a batch program to download the new update automatically (at present now I have to do this manually) and I have already created a batch program to run in the job scheduler on the 2 system that are not connected to the internet to update the virus definitions daily. Hope that helps.

Asyn: Do you know how often the manual down loads are updated. They don’t seem to be current from the automatic updates?

While were on the subject of manual updates – why when the update is done manually doesn’t the current information under MAINTENACE – Update – Current version:  change (show the old version of the definition)? The only way I have found to have this info updated is a reboot.

BUG?

cheyenne_747, are you using the latest version of avast program?
This seems to be an old GUI sync problem...

Why can't you download vpsupd.exe from web (e.g. using wget) - that's basically the same as the FTP operation, if there was any FTP.

He means that the full vpsupd.exe doesn't contain up to the minute VPS version.

@ cheyenne_747
I don't believe they update it after every incremental virus definitions update; how old is the one you downloaded (and when did you download) ?

Ahh, ok. Thanks, Dave..!
vpsupd.exe gets updated once a day.
