Updating OfficeScan
How do I configure automatic scheduled updates?
Updates are automatically received once they are available at the server unless OfficeScan is behind a firewall that blocks incoming TCP port 8080. Make sure that port 8080 is open on your firewall so that all clients can get updates correctly. Also make sure that all the Windows Firewall is configured to allow port 8080 out.
How do I know if my pattern files are up to date?
If your pattern files are more than a week old, the OfficeScan system tray icon will change to include an exclamation point in it. You can find out the date of your pattern files by doing the following:
Right-click the OfficeScan icon in the system tray and then choose OfficeScan Main.
On the Help menu, click About.
The Component information section contains the date the pattern files were last updated. This should typically be within the last 1 to 3 days.
How do I force an update?
If you want to force OfficeScan to check for updates, do the following:
Right-click the OfficeScan icon in the system tray and then choose Update Now.
Note: If your system requires a proxy to access the Internet, enter the appropriate information and then click Update Now to perform the update.

Can you not select "Update from the internet" from the client by clicking on the task-bar icon and selecting "Update now!"?
