17267 2001-08-20 06:39:00 When i start up I get a panel in the screen titled InoculateT out of date warning
which has an autudownload and cancel button
I activate the autodownlaod and get connected to the web
I then get a panel titled Autodownload and message ' your virus data files are upto date '
But the notice doesn't go away it appears every time I start up which is a severe pain
How do i get rid of it ?

17268 2001-08-20 06:53:00 Hi. Try manually updating the signatures. Go to: antivirus.cai.com and download the update, install, and this should help. Guest (0)
17269 2001-08-20 10:56:00 By default it will warn you after a month, which is a problem as the updates are updated every month. So it can give you the warning just before they release the update.

Or it may be set to two weeks which sounds more likley.

Start InoculateIT, goto options, program, reporting tab, click 'Configure out of date warning' and set it to somthing higher than a month.

5) An email will be sent to you with your customer number and the link to

File sizes are:
For the EZ AV 3.9Mb

So it could take some time to download depending on connection that you
have.
After completion of the download when trying to run the file if you received
an error stating that file is corrupted you will have to download the file
again until successful. Cause of this is usually a connection speed and we
would advise you to try at the time when there is not so many users
accessing the Internet.

If you do not wish to begin installation at this time you can initiate the
installation later by double-clicking on the file that you just downloaded
to your Desktop.

During product setup/installation you'll be asked to enter a License
Key/Serial No. This information you should have received earlier after
registration of the product.

Note: For problems such as speed interruptions non-complete file downloads
acquiring knowledge on Internet usage and other problems accessing the net
you should contact your Internet Service Provider.
