Question/Issue:
You use Cegetter.bat to download daily virus definition updates from the Symantec FTP servers. After February 8, 2005, you notice that Cegetter.bat is no longer downloading daily updates.


Solution:
This problem occurred because after February 8, 2005, Symantec Security Response stopped posting the Navup8.exe file into the FTP directory used by Cescript.txt. To correct this problem, you must modify the Cescript.txt file.

To modify the Cescript.txt file

1. Open Cescript.txt with a text editor, such as Notepad.
2. Find the following line of text:
   cd public/english_us_canada/antivirus_definitions/norton_antivirus/static
3. Replace "public/english_us_canada/antivirus_definitions" with "AVDEFS" so that it reads:
   cd AVDEFS/norton_antivirus/static
4. Save your changes.

You can also download a corrected version of Cescript.txt from the document How to automatically update Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition 8.x definitions without using LiveUpdate. This document was updated on February 8, 2005 with the updated text file.
