Got the Norton outbreak alert at the same time - but why if I have automatic updates selected does it simply come up with the alert, with a click here to 'protect me' button. That seems like a manual update to me!
NAV checks for updates every 4 hours ...... could be just Timeing .... a good habit to get into is to hit the 'Live Update' button as soon as you log onto the web ..... doesn't take a sec and you will be starting a web session with NAV bang up to date every time
The Outbreak alert came through to me a few minutes after logging on but stated I was already protected (because I had run the 'Live Update' as soon as I logged on per normal)
