There is a LiveUpdate from 9 February, but we have the same concerns here.
However, Symantec offers two update mechanisms: "LiveUpdate" and
"Intelligent Updater". They write on their website: "LiveUpdate definitions
are updated weekly, except for major outbreaks, when definitions are
updated more often [...] Intelligent Updater is updated daily during the
work week." (look at

What's keeping you from getting more from your terminal servers? Did you
know, in most cases, CPU Utilization IS NOT the single biggest
constraint to scaling up?! Get this free white paper to understand the
real constraints & how to overcome them. SAVE MONEY by scaling-up rather
than buying more servers.
