If you have set avast to update automatically or even check then it will check for updates every time you connect to the internet, or every 4 hours if you remain on line. So you should feel warm and secure without the need to do a manual update periodically, unless you are talking of manually checking more frequently than every four hours if connected all that time. For me on dial-up an automatic check for updates every time I connect is very frequent.
Mobile Security. Thanks for your help. I have it set to update automatically.
