Updating Virus and Spam Definition Databases
12.1
Overview
It is of the utmost importance that virus definition databases are kept
up-to-date. F-Secure Internet Gatekeeper takes care of this task
automatically.
If database update fails, it is strongly recommended to update the
databases manually before continuing to use the product. Instructions for
updating virus and spam definition databases manually can be found at:

12.2
Automatic Updates
With F-Secure Automatic Update Agent, virus and spam definition
database updates are retrieved automatically when they are published.
When a new virus is found, F-Secure provides a new virus definition
database update. F-Secure Internet Gatekeeper uses an intelligent
UDP-based polite protocol (BWTP) or HTTP protocol to fetch this update.
F-Secure’s virus and spam definition updates are digitally signed for
maximum security.
In order to update the spam definition databases F-Secure Automatic
Update Agent must be installed on the same computer as F-Secure Spam
Control.
You may install and use F-Secure Automatic Update Agent in conjunction
with licensed F-Secure's antivirus and security products. F-Secure
Automatic Update Agent shall be used only for receiving updates and
related information on F-Secure's antivirus and security products.
F-Secure Automatic Update Agent may not be used for any other purpose
or service.
F-Secure Automatic Update Agent was previously known as
F-Secure BackWeb client.
