Require confirmation from the user (by default) - you will be asked to approve a PC
restart needed to finalize the update process
Restart immediately - the computer will be restarted automatically immediately after the
update process has finished, and your approval will not be required
Complete at next computer restart - the update process finalization will be postponed until
the next computer restart. Please keep in mind that this option is only recommended if you
are sure to restart the computer regularly, at least once a day!
Post update memory scan
Mark this checkbox to stipulate that you want to launch a new memory scan after each successfully
completed update. The latest downloaded update might have new virus definitions, and these could
be applied in the scanning immediately.
Additional update options
Build new system restore point during each program update - before each AVG
program update launch, a system restore point is created. In case the update process fails
and your operating system crashes you can always restore your OS to its original
configuration from this point. This option is accessible via Start / All Programs /
Accessories / System tools / System Restore, but any changes can be recommended to
experienced users only! Keep this check-box ticked if you want to make use of this
functionality.
Use DNS update (on by default) - with this item marked, once the update is launched,
your AVG Internet Security 2012 looks for information about the latest virus database
version and the latest program version on the DNS server. Then only the smallest
indispensably required update files are downloaded, and applied. This way the total amount
of data downloaded is minimized, and the update process runs faster.
Require confirmation to close running applications (switched on by default) - this will
help you make sure no currently running applications will be closed without your permission
- if required for the update process to be finalized.
Check computer time - mark this option to declare you wish to have notifications
displayed in case the computer time differs from the correct time more than by a specified
number of hours.
