The Update Progress Window
The Update Progress window is also displayed when the update is running. If you can’t see the
window, double-click the update tray icon (mentioned above). The Update Progress window
displays all the information relevant to the update process. This includes the status of the update,
the progress - measured in kB and percentage, and the speed of the download measured in kB
per second. At any stage, the update can be canceled using the button provided. The update will
automatically start again shortly after any cancellation.
Scheduling the Automatic Update
As mentioned above, you can allow EZ Antivirus to perform the update automatically at frequent
intervals, or you can choose a set time for the update to be performed. Choosing a set time gives
you flexibility over your updates. For example, if you use a dial-up connection and you wish the
update to run at a time when you regularly connect to the Internet. Or, if you wish the update to
run at a time when you are not using the computer. The time, and frequency of the updates can
be set using the
Schedule Update Settings
dialog box. This is accessed by clicking the
Schedule
