123438 2003-02-23 18:00:00 Usually Kiwi alerts us all to updates but at 1.56am this morning got a 221kb AV update if anyone is interested in checking also for there own systems and peace of mind. Gordon. (2217)
123439 2003-02-23 21:07:00 I did not know what a NAV UPDATE referred to so using GOOGLE I went to the following site.......
www.computing.net but did not follow up so here i am as clueless as before.......

123441 2003-02-24 00:19:00 I dont see much point as that what automatic updates are for. You dont have to worry then. Big John (551)
123442 2003-02-24 06:45:00 Thanks Gordon,

Must have been a bad new one as it is between scheduled weekly postings?

Hi Big John,

A lot of Norton AV users & other AV apps users,download manually for various reasons and it's always good to know of new defs!

123443 2003-02-24 07:12:00 I do mine manually as well but I stick to a schedule and that way it is current. If you wait and expect someone else to tell you when an update is available then you are looking for trouble. Big John (551)
123444 2003-02-24 07:28:00 Thanks guys :-)

I also update my NAV manually every Thursday, but I appreciate people posting here on the extra updates.

The tips on new Ad-aware reference files are also appreciated!

Keep it up :-)

123447 2003-02-24 22:33:00 I do mine manually as well couple of times a week but it is always nice to know if something has popped up in between so you can go grab it.

Just downloaded another NAV update just now of 232kb.
