Hi Ron, Thanks for the info. I don't mind when it updates - it's just that I want to make sxre it is updating. Do you know how I can find out when it was last updated? Because I went into program settings and looked at update and it said it last updated at 10 something last night; but I think this wasn't the update of the virus database because I didn't hear that sound saying it was up-to-date, plus I think this info was talking about that record it keeps of the files on your computer last being updated at 10 last night.
