For the safety, i manualy update with AVG 8. From: Yardbird Sent: Monday, May 26, 2008 01:47 PM To: JFW List Subject: Jaws not reporting AVG daily update Is this the way it's supposed to be? I know some people used to complain about their work being interrupted when AVG V. 7.5 performed it's daily update and hung up your work for a few seconds while reporting that it was updating and then giving you the option to close the last dialogue before it closed by itself. I never minded that too horribly, myself. Just sort of got used to it. But now I find myself a little uneasy, because it seems that in the redesign, they fixed it so that when AVG does its daily update of the virus database and whatever else, it doesn't display any notice of this at all. This morning, just to be sure, I learned to check that information screen that loads when the program launches, and found that it did say the update had been done and everything was up to date. I suppose I'll find the same thing tomorrow, if I look at that screen after the time for the update. But is this just the way it works now, and I should just chill and not feel obligated to check every day? One more thing that struck me oddly. I ran my first scan with V. 8 a little afterward, and in the report that came up when the scan was finished, among the usual items about how many files were scanned and how many threats found and what was done with them and that stuff, there was a line that said that the last update had been at the time given for the completion of the scan. I'm thinking "Huh? It ran another update just as it finished its scan? Really? Why?" Maybe I misunderstood what the wording means in that line? Or? Anybody know? thanks. -- JFW related links: JFW homepage: http://www.freedomscientific.com/ Scripting mailing list: http://lists.the-jdh.com/listinfo.cgi/scriptography-the-jdh.com JFW List instructions: To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.
