utility’s use.
Clearing this checkbox preserves the options you’ve chosen, but causes
the utility to skip this site when it tries to download new .DAT files.
The AutoUpgrade utility will make a maximum of three connection
attempts for the site during each scheduled update operation. When it
does connect and download new program files, the utility also extracts
the files and installs them into the correct directory.
3. Specify which transfer method the utility must use to download new
files. Your choices are:
• Copy from a local network computer. Click this button to tell the

the path to the computer that holds the new files you want to
download in the text box labeled Select a Computer and Directory.

Administrators group—to install new scan engine or any
program files that replace existing Dr Solomon’s Anti-Virus
services.
