Symantec LiveUpdate is a tool that updates the virus database of all of the Symantec products installed on your computer.
This application has the latest signatures corresponding to harmful programs circulating on the Internet as well as new methodologies created to detect and eliminate them perfectly.
Symantec LiveUpdate’s update inserts new virus definitions in your antivirus, plus techniques to detect and eliminate them from your computer.
It also updates the databases of spy software like spyware, malware, adware and Trojan horses.
Symantec’s tools can be updated in two ways, one by installing Symantec LiveUpdate and the other by connecting each program to the Internet.
Computers that aren’t connected to this program cannot update the database and when you transfer your information to a mobile device, you can infect them. This application keeps those computers out of harm’s way.
