Shibathedog Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 yeah, it seems to screw itself up eventually even without viruses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VT-Vincent Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 Lost count how many times I've reinstalled windows. I actually haven't had to reinstall Windows due to any problems for longer than I can remember, it has had to have been at least 5-6 years. I usually end up upgrading the OS or re-tasking the computer before anything like that happens. I'm also very selective about what I install and I avoid any common sources of viruses/spyware. I think the longest running install I have right now is on my Media Center, it's been running XP MCE for about 4 years now. I run all of my emulators on it, some of which don't work to well with Vista or 7 so it will probably stay on XP for the foreseeable future.

Bambi Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share Posted September 7, 2009 Is their anyway to update the anti virus without connecting to the internet or a way to download the update from another pc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VT-Vincent Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 (edited) Symantec provides a manual definition update for their Norton Antivirus software: http://www.symantec.com/business/security_...ail.jsp?gid=n95 NOD32 on the other hand, I don't beleive ESET provides definitions outside of the updater software. I know McAfee provides manual definitions as well, but I'm assuming you probably don't want to go that route.

Shibathedog Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 You can get ESET updates on torrent sites but I don't know if ESET actually makes them or not. I just update it with the auto update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
