Updating Manually

If you do not want to wait for the next scheduled update, update the scan engine and pattern files manually. You should update manually if your users received infected email or spam that slipped through the filter, or if you suspect a virus outbreak has taken place on your network.

To update manually:

  1. Click Summary from the menu. The Real-time Statistics screen appears.

  2. Click System to display the System summary information.

  3. Under Components, verify the version numbers of the antivirus, anti-spyware, and anti-spam components that InterScan™ Messaging Security Appliance (IMSA) uses to protect your network.

  4. Select the check boxes next to the components to update.

  5. Click Update.
