Update Virus Database

Click 'Antivirus' > 'Update Virus Database'

To ensure your system remains virus-free, it is imperative that the virus database is kept up-to-date.

You can download updates from Xcitium's update servers to your system in two ways:

• Download updates manually

• Download updates automatically
  

Manually check for the latest virus database

• Open Xcitium Client Security

• Click the 'Antivirus' tab

• Click 'Update Virus Database' on the tasks screen
  

The following notification is shown when the update is complete:

The following notification will appear when the update process is complete:

When infected or possibly infected files are found, if the anti-virus database has been not updated for a critically long time, or your computer has not been scanned for a long time, the main window of Xcitium Client - Security recommends a course of action and gives a supporting explanation.

Automatic updates

• By default, ССS is set to automatically check for and download updates from the Xcitium servers before commencing a scan of any type.

• You can configure whether these automatic checks updates take place on a 'per scanner' basis in the 'Scanner Settings. See Real Time Scan Settings and Scheduled Scan Settings for more details.

• 'Manual Scanning' refers to 'on demand' scans carried out on items when, for instance, they are dragged in the scan box or the Xcitium dock icon.
