McAfee updates

Hi

An earlier post about the update process with McAfee has made me realise I
may be working under false understanding. Whether I assumed it or was
told/read it somewhere I can't recall, but for ages I've worked on the basis
that when I download whatever the latest DAT file is, it contains not just
the latest update, but an accumulation of all the earlier ones as well for
that version/engine. Is that so, or do you really have to install each and
every DAT file?

Cheers

Err, I think so - I think your last sentence stated what I understood as
happening - that when I download a DAT file, it contains the latest updates,
as well as the contents of all the previously released DAT files for the
programme version that I have.

So, my picture is that should i ever have to reinstall from CD, I'd only
need to download and install the very latest superdat and/or DAT files.

So, thanks Dave
