Software and Definitions File Updates

You can adjust the software to automatically download and install Definitions File and software updates.

When a new update is available, it will automatically be downloaded to your computer.

You can also save the Definitions File to a specific location on you computer by clicking the “Import” button.

 

Information Updates

You can adjust the information updates to keep informed and updated about Lavasoft (company information, industry news, etc.) This is automatically displayed in the main status window.

 

ThreatWork Settings

You can configure ThreatWork to automatically submit suspicious files silently (meaning you do not see the ThreatWork window), or to open the ThreatWork window when sending files. You can also turn this setting off.

We do, however, recommend that you have this option turned on to submit your suspicious files and become a valuable contributor to Lavasoft ThreatWork

 

Proxy Settings

If you are operating behind a proxy server, you will need to have your proxy server settings correctly configured in order to perform updates.

Click the “Proxy Settings” button to configure the proxy server settings.
