Turn off / turn on Automatic LiveUpdate

Apr 17, 2010

You can have LiveUpdate check for definition updates and product updates automatically on a set schedule, by turning on the Automatic LiveUpdate option. You can also run LiveUpdate manually when the Automatic LiveUpdate option is turned on. However, you must run LiveUpdate manually to obtain updates if you have turned off the Automatic LiveUpdate option.


Note:

If you are connected to the Internet, Automatic LiveUpdate downloads product updates and definition updates every hour. If you have an ISDN router that is set to automatically connect to your Internet service provider (ISP), it may incur charges each time. If this type of setup is a problem, you can set your ISDN router not to automatically connect to the ISP. Alternatively, you can turn off Automatic LiveUpdate.

To turn off Automatic LiveUpdate
  1. In the Norton Internet Security main window, in the Computer pane, click Settings.
  2. Under Updates, in the Automatic LiveUpdate row, move the On/Off switch to the right to the Off position.
    You may need to scroll the window to see the option.
  3. Click Apply.
  4. In the Select the duration drop-down list, select how long you want to turn off Automatic LiveUpdate, and then click OK.
