Hi man
It can be used not only for backing up the files, can be used also for updating the definitions from other systems... it works fine....

I tried backup & restore & it succesfully update. How ever when I tried for Liveupdate for recent virus def, In dialog box the date of updation remains same(i.e, Date when I had restored manually) I want to know whtr liveupdate is succesful.

If LiveUpdate fails, it will ntify you that it has failed. The date remains the same means, new updates may not be available. LiveUpdate checked onlne, but could not find anything new...............
