New viruses are found every
day, and sometimes there are
several hundred viruses
detected in a month.
Get into the habit of updating
you DAT files regularly and
always do so if you see a

Updating McAfee VirusScan

regularly update VirusScan. Following this procedure installs
the latest virus signature (DAT) files to protect you against
recent viruses:

hand of your system tray.
2. Right click on the Vshield
3. Choose the Auto Update button to update your DAT files.
McAfee offers free DAT file updates for one year. You can
also subscribe to a maintenance and upgrade plan, for a
minimal fee.
Upgrading McAfee VirusScan software
In addition to updating your virus protection you can also
install the most recent version of the scan engine (the anti-
virus software). Choose the AutoUpgrade option within
McAfee VirusScan to complete this process.
