I get manual live updates after only a short time form the previous maual update. Why?
Hi gcarson:
Welcome to the forum.
You can view the configuration settings that control the way that your updates are delivered to your computer at Settings | Computer Settings | Updates. Click on the "?" button to the right of "Updates" and it will automatically link you to the Help topic that explains the difference between the full LiveUpdates that run every hour or so and the more frequent pulse updates that check every 10 minutes or so for the latest virus definitions.
For the best protection you should leave both the automatic LiveUpdates and pulse updates turned ON in your settings, but some users with slow dial-up connections don't have the bandwidth to have LiveUpdates running this frequently in the background and prefer to run their LiveUpdates manually when their Internet connection is idle.
