Download New Versions Manually

To update your data files manually, take the following steps:
1. Download the data file (for example, DAT-3103.ZIP) from one of McAfee's
electronic services. On most services, it is located in the anti-virus section. Please
note that your ability to access these updates is legally restricted by the maintenance
terms outlined in the README.1
the software license agreement.
2. Copy the file to a new directory.
3. The file is in a compressed format. Decompress the file using any PKUNZIP-
compatible decompressing software. If you don't have the decompressing software,
you can download PKUNZIP (shareware) from McAfee electronic sites.
authentic files from McAfee will be tagged with -AV by PKZIP. Look for this tag
when unzipping files to ensure their authenticity.)
4. Locate the directories on your hard drive where your VirusScan software is currently
loaded. The default directory locations are shown below.
