UPDATING DATABASES AND APPLICATION MODULES
By default, Kaspersky Internet Security automatically checks for updates on the Kaspersky Lab update servers. If the
server stores a set of recent updates, Kaspersky Internet Security downloads and installs them in background mode. You
can run a Kaspersky Internet Security update manually at any time from the main application window or the context
menu of the application icon in the taskbar notification area.
To download updates from Kaspersky Lab servers, you should be connected to the Internet.
When working in Microsoft Windows 8, updates are not downloaded if a broadband Internet connection is established
and a limit is imposed on traffic under this type of connection. To download updates, you should lift the limitations
manually in the Network subsection of the application settings window.
To run an update from the context menu of the application icon in the taskbar notification area,
in the context menu of the application icon, select the Update item.
To run an update from the main application window:
1. Open the main application window and select the Update section in the lower part of the window.
The window displays the Update section.
2. In the Update section click the Run update button.
