If not, what is the approx size of the update download? Thank you The impending V5 is supposed to utilize incremental updating. The link below will show you what the download size is without incremental updating. https://www.superantispyware.com/definitions.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greyowl Report post Posted January 17, 2011 Thanks for the information. This is very good news. How soon will v.5 be available? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
siliconman01 Report post Posted January 17, 2011 The last official response to that question was that the pre-release is "very close". There is no public commitment on when V5.0 will be issued as a general release. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SUPERAntiSpy Report post Posted January 18, 2011 We won't have incremental updating in 5.0, but the definitions (new compression and technology) are over 30% smaller, which means faster downloads, less bandwidth and improved performance. We are testing the pre-release in-house now and will be releasing to select memebers for testing then public pre-release will follow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greyowl Report post Posted January 18, 2011 Thanks for the information. So, the updates will be about 4mb. I have dialup internet so unfortunately even a smaller download is time consuming and restricts the browser activity. When do you expect to have incremental updating?

You are falling behind of competence because of this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

While incremental updates will be a nice feature in the future, detecting and removing malware/spyware remains our highest priority - our definitions are quite small <4MB (thus much lighter than other products) so incremental updates wouldn't benefit our users as much other features and product enhancements. Incremental updates is on our list, but won't be available with the first 5.0 release. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
