Figure 84. Selecting update objects
If you want to download and install updates for program modules:
open application settings window, select Update, and check Update
Application Modules.
If there are currently program module updates on the update source, a
special window, containing the description of all changes in the program
modules, will appear on your screen. Basing on this description, you can
decide whether the update should be installed.
Update method (see Figure 85) defines how the Updater is started. One of the
following modes may be selected under Run Mode:
Automatically. Kaspersky Internet Security checks the update source for
update packages at specified intervals (see 17.3.1 on pg. 224). When the
program detects fresh updates, it downloads them and installs them on the
computer. This mode is used by default.
If a network resource is specified as an update source, Kaspersky Internet
Security tries to launch updating after a certain amount of time has elapsed
as specified in the previous update package. If a local folder is selected as
an update source, the application tries to download the updates from the
local folder at a frequency specified in the update package that was
downloaded during the last updating. This option allows Kaspersky Lab to
regulate the updating frequency in case of virus outbreaks and other
potentially dangerous situations. Your application will receive the latest
updates for application databases and software modules in a timely manner,
thus excluding the possibility for malicious software to penetrate your
computer.
