eBait Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Maybe you can try to grab a download link of the new Comodo Internet Security database.--Got you wrong there, but Comodo also has an auto updating solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rashad Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I actually need to download the updates manually at work because of download rules in the network which prevents direct http download and thus making antivirus automatic update useless.@talakitok: to download the updates manually go to http://free.avg.com/download-updateyou'll see 4 files for download1. "All necessary modules" is an update for the programs components2. "Link Scanner DB" is a database of links if you enabled the link scanner in AVG3 and 4 are the virus definitions AVG database has two parts that needs updating AVI/IAVI example virus database version is 270.8.4/1753 which means AVI=270.8.4 and IAVI=1753, check your database version to see what needs updating.after you downloaded the files go to AGV and click Tools->Update from directory and point to the folder where all updates are downloaded(you can do more that one update at a time.

Bizarre™ Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Maybe you can try to grab a download link of the new Comodo Internet Security database.--Got you wrong there, but Comodo also has an auto updating solution.Well, I don't want to blow your bubbles mate, but CIS is still on the testing phase even after its final release.No offense to you and the COMODO team (I love the COMODO team), but it's still too early for its AV.If you want to know more, just visit their forums.COMODO ForumsSo, recommending CIS to others may not be a good idea.However, if you're going to recommend COMODO firewall only, then that's a different issue :yes: .
