Update questions

Hello, I am using the trial version of NOD32 on windows Vista 64 bit. and I am wondering how often the databases actually update because the last time I did an update check there were three database releases and at that time the latest was from yesterday. I was able to get it updated manually but I am just wondering why it isn't doing it automatically.

 

from my experience it auto updates 2-3 times a day, but it might just have been inbetween update check intervals that they had an update ready, so wen u manually checked, it was there to download, but it wuldve been downloaded automatically at the next interval

 

hmm ok that is what I was wondering. because two updates had been released prior to the 5011 update and it wasn't even touched. where as I think a couple of days ago I had no problem in in the automatic updates as it got them when they came out. I don't know if it is because it is a trial version that they aren't coming right away or what but the intervals are a little worrysome to say the least. also I was wondering when do the program modules update?

 

Also the Trial version is not on the priority list to get updated first, the paid version always gets updates first as far as I know! An ESET Mod can confirm!

that is what I wondered is there also any way of knowing when the databases came out?

 

Just look for it on the list! https://www.wilderssecurity.com/forumdisplay.php?f=34 or here http://www.eset.com/threat-center/threatsense-updates

thanks Helix.

 

Your Welcome

Typically, the virus signature database updates from one to four times daily.
You scheduler should poll for updates every sixty minutes, this is a default setting. Check your scheduler settings, if they are incorrect they should be adjusted to suit this criteria.
Regards,

 

I already answered this Question we need a ESET MOD to confirm that the Trial version is not on the priority list to get updated first!

TH

 

actually I have the automatic update set to about 30 minutes.

 

Have things change since your first post? If not wait for an ESET MOD to answer your query!

All the Best with your Trial and hope you upgrade to the full version!

TH

 

I changed that earlier when it let those updates slip by and I plan to when I can get it bought lol

 

So things are updating fine now and regularly? I've used NOD32 for more than 7 years and always will! But never the Trial version so I'm curious!

TH

 

that I am not sure on I will find out when the next update is released.

 

Yes that's true it's been awhile since 5011

I like this http://www.eset.com/threat-center/threatsense-net

yeah I was surprised earlier to find that 5009,5010 and 5011 were released. and my last signature database that files were scanned on was 5008. didn't know until I checked the database even that those 3 had been released:s

I do know that on the trial version the components aren't updated just the signatures.

 

True as there was a new Version out today I'm not sure if the Trial is updated yet to download? Again another Question for the ESET MODS!

I'm off to bed nice talking to you and hope they answer your Questions soon!

Cheers,

TH

 

I don't know on that one lol I am just wondering if it will update the way it is supposed to or not tomorrow. and have a good one Helix I am gonna get some sleep too.

 

How is your update today since we had 2 at the time of my post?

2010-04-09 16:02 Update 5013 (20100409)

2010-04-09 08:31 Update 5012 (20100409)

TH

 

ir isn't I updated manually the first time around and that worked fine because I just had a restart. now that 513 has been issued, I click on update and it says update not needed signatures are current. which is the same message I was getting yesterday with the three updates even though they were already released. now here is the funny thing. if I restart the computer, the update will go through fine.

Okay I finally got it to update manually. so it is now on 5013

 

I Pinged an ESET MOD to make a comment here so we will wait till we see what he has to say!

TH

 

ok thanks. any help is appreciated.

 

I have asked 2 ESET Mods to comment but I don't know why they haven't? I'm sorry I could not help you further all I can say I hope they do and good luck

TH

 

I dunno maybe they don't see it as a big deal?
still have to do things manually when it comes over.
