by roddy32 Jan 2, 2006 12:53AM PST

[QUOTE]
Have started building a FP testset, and found 1 more FP. Getting used to the editor though, should be able to minimise this to almost none.

Hopefully the numbers are correct now with this update, but will be going back to a full update tomorrow anyway.

Sorry for asking, but I didn't see
by Melati Hitam Jan 2, 2006 1:14AM PST

Symantec/Norton Liveupdate 3.0.150 released on Dec 12 2005, mention in your daily update list.

Does it means that update is not necessary? Or did I miss that one?


Thank You

I don't know if Donna posted that or
by roddy32 Jan 2, 2006 1:45AM PST

not Melati. I NEVER do. I always wait until it is offered via Live Update on the program itself which eventually it is. Symantec spreads it's program updates out for weeks depending on program version, years, locations, etc. There are so many of them that I never post them nor do I even know where Donna finds all that stuff. Anything that is absolutely necessary will be eventually offered via Live Update but you'd have click on it to get up, it won't come automatically although it will usually tell you when something is available. I use NAV2004 myself.
