AntiVir updates.

UNIX documentation.
Using cron for updates, you have more configuration possibilities than with the Internet
Updater.
Example: Enter the following cron job in /etc/crontab:
45 */2 * * * root /usr/lib/AntiVir/antivir --update -q

ahead of the set time: 0:45, 2:45, 4:45 and so on. The -q parameter states that no
