Run mode for database updates

In the drop-down list, you can select how often the update task runs and configure the task schedule:

• Automatically. Kaspersky Internet Security checks the update source for new updates with the set frequency. The frequency of checks can be increased during virus outbreaks and decreased when there are none. After detecting an update package, Kaspersky Internet Security downloads it and installs it on the computer.
• Manually. You run the update task yourself at the time of your choosing.
• Daily. The task runs every day. The time of the task start is specified in the Time field below.
• Weekly. The task starts on the day of the week selected in the Day of the week list below. The time of the task start is specified in the Time field below.
• After application startup. The task is run each time Kaspersky Internet Security is started.

In the drop-down list, you can specify on which of the days of the week to run updates of the databases and application software modules.

This interface element is displayed if, in the Run update list, you have selected weekly.

In the text box, you can specify at which time to run updates of the databases and application software modules.

This interface element is displayed if, in the Run update list, you have selected weekly or daily.

If the check box is selected, the application runs skipped tasks. For example, if the computer was turned off, the application runs the skipped tasks after the computer is turned on.

If this check box is cleared, Kaspersky Internet Security does not run skipped tasks. Instead, it runs the next task in accordance with the specified schedule.

This check box is displayed when the daily or weekly value is selected in the list.
