MCAFEE- UPDATING VIRUS DEFINITIONS (DAT FILES): (could be a little different depending on which McAfee program you have)

1. Open Virus Program (if not still open) 2. "UPDATE" 3. "UPDATE" 4. "YES" (it is asking if you want to open a web browser). (Web Bowser Opens). 5. 3/4 of the way towards the bottom of this page in white area: a. Click on "DOWNLOAD CURRENT DAT FILES (will be in small blue print underlined) b. New window appears (White-w/ instructions), let this window alone! c. Another gray window pops up which says File Download Click "RUN FROM THIS LOCATION" (my advise) (or you can download, but you must know where you put it!) 6. It will start downloading the new Virus Definitions (DAT Files) 7. When finished downloading another gray window pops up. a. Click "YES". 8. Click "NEXT" 9. Click "FINISH"

(You can close out of all windows that are open now) 10. I advise REBOOTING your computer now.

(If there was a problem downloading go to that white window we left alone and click on the "here" in blue and it will start downloading again).
