Your computer is left exposed to viruses, malicious programs, network attacks and what nots. True, Kaspersky Internet Security or Antivirus has proven itself irreplaceable due to its effectivity and performance efficiency, taking only a small amount of computer resources while running protection.
How to download Kaspersky Updates Manually
Downloading the update manually results in a bigger download size and longer download time. In the automatic mode, we’re only getting the files that we need to update directly from the Kaspersky Labs servers. In manual mode, we end up getting the “whole sack of files” and use it as an update source.
- Go to http://www.kaspersky.com/avupdates
- In this page, you will be asked which Kaspersky software version you are going to update. Click your version.
- In the succeeding page, you will be asked how big the “sack of files” you want. You may get the daily, weekly or cumulative update. Since this may be your first time to update, download the cumulative sets of anti-virus databases and databases of network attacks. The filename may be av-i386&ids-cumul.zip.
- Make a new folder in your computer. Let’s name it Kaspersky Update.
- Once you have downloaded the zip file which may be av-i386&ids-cumul.zip, extract its contents to the folder we just created.
