Defender - How does it work ?

- 0Greetings All !,
I'm probably not in the right Forum but....
Having Downloaded Defender (w/Win/XP) when updating it, does it actually check my Computer's contents, or just apply the update to anything that it encountered from that point forward ?
Have a good Day ! :)
S.W.
Good Golf, good Friends or what ever makes you happy !

Correct. :)
This is a Windows Home Server forum.

Huh? Updating the program does just that - it updates the program (specifically, it regularly updates the definition file, just like AV software does.)
Or, do you mean 'when scanning my computer?'
