Hello<br />
<br />
We have a standalone server in our DMZ that i am having problems getting McAfee to update.<br />
<br />
The Server is Windows Server 2003 and is running McAfee VirusScan 8.8<br />
<br />
As its in our DMZ it wont be able to connect to our main ePO server for updates, but does have complete Internet Access.<br />
<br />
However, when i try and force VirusScan to manually update it says that it is &quot;unable to find a valid repository&quot;<br />
<br />
I can't seem to find a setting in VirusScan that allows me to point the update to McAfee's http or ftp update service<br />
<br />
Any ideas?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance

How do you force McAfee VirusScan to update from McAfee and not ePO?

Anti-virus software was originally developed to detect and remove computer viruses. However, with the proliferation of other kinds of malware, antivirus software started to provide protection from other computer threats. In particular, modern antivirus software can protect from malicious browser helper objects (BHOs), browser hijackers, ransomware, keyloggers, backdoors, rootkits, trojan horses, worms, malicious layered service providers (LSPs), dialers, fraud tools, adware and spyware. Some products also include protection from other computer threats, such as infected and malicious URLs, spam, scam and phishing attacks, online identity theft (privacy), online banking attacks, social engineering techniques, Advanced Persistent Threat (APT), botnets and DDoS attacks.
