avast virus database has been updated sound

VRDB stands for 'Virus Recovery Database' it was known as 'Integrity Database' in previous avast! versions. The following is taken from the Avast help file to better explain what VRBD does. Why 2 you ask? Well the ball on the left is the ?Avast! Virus Recovery Database (VRBD) Generator Īnd finally install the product, and then reboot.Īfter returning to windows you?ll see a one time ?welcome to Avast Antivirus? screen, upon clicking on ok you?ll see your new little antivirus icons next to your clock 2 little blue balls. Once downloaded you double click the icon and start the installĬlick next, and setup protection for everything that you want.

The Program itself rings in about 7.5 meg which isn?t really big or at lease you tend not to think so if your downloading it via broadband but if you burn it to a cd and their cdrom doesn?t like burned cd?s and you have to re-download it over dialup, it tends to look a tad bigger lol. I recently went on the search again and came Upon Avast 4 Personal Edition and I must say what a gem. They are the kin A) Have an antivirus from the year 2000 and have never updated it I?m currently self employed doing computer repair and there are people who could use a free antivirus.

I also didn?t like the fact that when AVG?s resident scanner would actually find a virus it would say? something to the extent of ?we found a virus we?d like to remove it for you now but we are just to lazy, please do a full system scan?I was thinking, man that kind of defeats the purpose. I think it is now time for the question to be asked, does a person really have to go out and spend $50 some dollars to buy Norton and then another $25 dollars per year just to get updates?Ī few weeks ago I was still leaning towards yes after having tried out AVG antivirus Free edition and having the worst luck updating it via the program (doing it via the website did work but it?s the principle of the thing).
