Notifying you before downloading updates

If you select Notify me before downloading any updates in the SecurityCenter Options dialog box, SecurityCenter notifies you before downloading any updates. You can then choose to download and install an update for your security services to remove the threat of an attack.

To download and install an update:

1. Click Update now on the Update Available alert.
2. Click Update on the Updates dialog box.
3. Log in to the McAfee Web site if prompted to do so. The update downloads automatically.
4. Click Finish when the update is finished installing.

Note: In some cases, you will be prompted to restart your computer to complete the update. Be sure to save all of your work and close all applications before restarting.
