Updating once a week isn't a good idea, because you won't have signature protection from new viruses for several days.

What's the problem with the automatic update, when is the last time it updated?

Dear percy1105

weekly are being updated each Friday or Saturday. Which isn't very safe for the reason that bluesprite gave.

Can you please do this open BitDefender press on history click on update and post the day,hour when the latest update was installed? For previous BitDefender versions you have to click on general,events. What product of BitDefender are you using? I mean BitDefender Antivirus,BitDefender Internet Security,BitDefender Antivirus Plus,BitDefender Total Security and which version? I mean 2008,10,9,..

If you are using a separate firewall is livesrv.exe and upgrepl.exe (for the 2008 product line) allowed internet access? The location C:\Program Files\Common Files\BitDefender\BitDefender Update Service\livesrv.ewe you have to allow both incoming as outgoing traffic (udp/tcp).

im using bit defender total security 2008

im opening history

ummm

i think i can guess soemthing... when i update and it updated success but it did not show up[ i mean the board of update status] it always stopped at 55% or 11% [ lots lots of time]

today november 17; i updated 2 times

11/14 3 times

all of them were sucessful . but u know; i clicked update lots lots of time and it always stopped at 55% and 11% so i thought servers were busy . and now ithink something wrong with the board status... it was sucessful but it just stopped at 55% or 11%

and i have a question

why the board status of update is so big?? before; BD 9 it was only small and very fast when i clicked right lick and click update. but BD total it will take me around 3 seconds [ right click- wait] then i can click update. then a big window appear and then update. [i love the way which BD 9 was.]

thank for your help thank 2 bluesprite and neils thank

Dear percy1105

If an update failed you will see it also when you take a look at the logbook of the updates.

The reason why the updates are so big now is because also product upgrades,fixes are also downloaded together with malware,... rules. In the past only normal updates where downloaded (read virus and spyware definitions).
