I only have access to dialup internet. When I try to update my anti-virus program weekly it takes 3-4 hrs to download.How can I overcome this? Windows notified me that my computor is now at risk as virus protection is out of date.

What Anti Virus are you using?

Nod32 isn't free but it is one of the best and it's updates are small around 50kb

The only definition updates I can find for Trend PC Cillin 2007 are about 23MB which is very big that would explain why it takes a long time on dial up, you could take a take a look at some of the free Anti Virus solutions I have posted here: http://helpdesk.getmega.com/index.php/topic,35.0.html

I run PC - Cillin and find it OK. Used to run it on dialup internet and had no problems with updates. I will admit that it will often update two or three time aday.
