Updating Antivirus Programs and Information
IMPORTANT NOTICE: If you are not running any antivirus program on your computer, GET SOME NOW! If you are connected to the Internet without an antivirus program, there is a 99.9999% chance that your system is infected with one or more viruses.
Norton Antivirus
To check to see if your Virus Definitions are up-to-date, open Norton Antivirus. You should see a line which reads, "Using virus definitions dated 00/00/00." If your date is more than 7 days old, update your virus definitions NOW! To update:
- go to the Norton web site
- click on Download Virus Definitions under Security Response Tools
- click on Download Virus Definitions (Intelligent Updater Only)
- click on Download Updates (note the location of the saved file on your computer)
- after download is complete, double-click the file you just saved and follow the prompts
- check Norton to be sure it displays the most current virus definitions.
To configure your Norton Antivirus Program to scan all files on your computer, go to the Norton web site and follow their online directions.
McAfee Antivirus Program
Currently, we do not use the McAfee program; therefore, you must refer to their Web Site for information on their program. We apologize for any inconvenience.
