Thank you for the reply, I just cant find how I update the conventional way, I have made sure that all windows updates are done but I just cant seem to find on the SBS server how I update forefront. Please could you direct me to where in SBS this can be doen?
Sometimes the timeout value is not long enough for the AV engines to update.

In the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Forefront Server Security\Exchange Server, create a DWORD called EngineDownloadTimeout and set the value to 600 decimal for 10 minutes. If that doesn't work try raising it to 900 (384 hex) for 15 minutes.
