Note
You can use AntiVir Internet Update Manager (file server or web server in Windows) as a
web server or file server in the intranet. AntiVir Internet Update Manager mirrors the
download servers of Avira AntiVir products (including AntiVir Professional) and can be
obtained on the Internet at http://www.avira.com.
When a web server is used, the HTTP protocol is used for the download. When using a
file server, access to the update file is provided via the network. The connection to the
web or file server is configured in the configuration under General :: Update. The default
configuration uses the existing Internet connection as the connection to the Avira
GmbH Web server.
