Re: Can't update AdAWare,SpyBot,AVG



From: "Barbara Z" <BarbaraZ@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

| Hi Dave - Had to run out for 20+ mins.
| Sorry, no go on the updates.
| One thing - they have NAV which comes up saying the Auto-Protect drivers are
| not working. When I first checked status, I saw that the definitions were
| outdated (5/27/05) and need to be renewed. That is why I installed AVG; the
| red X is thru the NAV tray icon, and I figured I'm OK. I did get in touch w/
| these people last night - they said thay bought a new NSW, so it's OK to go
| ahead and uninstall the NAV04. Do you think that might help??
| I'm doublechecking msconfig now. Before when I went thru it, I didn't
| uncheck any Symantec items. I just did now, and it's restarting........still
| no go on updates. Any more ideas?? Should I go ahead and uninstall NAV??


Download MULTI_AV.EXE from the URL --
http://www.ik-cs.com/programs/virtools/Multi_AV.exe

To use this utility, perform the following...
Execute; Multi_AV.exe { Note: You must use the default folder C:\AV-CLS }
Choose; Unzip
Choose; Close

Execute; C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT
{ or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS }

NOTE: You may have to disable your software FireWall or allow WGET.EXE to go through your
FireWall to allow it to download the needed AV vendor related files.

C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT -- { or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS}
This will bring up the initial menu of choices and should be executed in Normal Mode.
This way all the components can be downloaded from each AV vendor's web site.
The choices are; Sophos, Trend, McAfee, Kaspersky, Exit this menu and Reboot the PC.

You can choose to go to each menu item and just download the needed files or you can
download the files and perform a scan in Normal Mode. Once you have downloaded the files
needed for each scanner you want to use, you should reboot the PC into Safe Mode [F8 key
during boot] and re-run the menu again and choose which scanner you want to run in Safe
Mode. It is suggested to run the scanners in both Safe Mode and Normal Mode.

When the menu is displayed hitting 'H' or 'h' will bring up a more comprehensive PDF help
file. http://www.ik-cs.com/multi-av.htm
