Keeping your BullGuard Mobile up-to-date

New mobile threats are found and identified periodically. This is why it is very important to keep your BullGuard Mobile up-to-date with the latest virus definitions.

If you are connected to the Internet, BullGuard Mobile takes care of this itself: it checks for new definitions when you turn on your Pocket PC and every 8 hours after that (by default). If any new virus definitions are available, BullGuard Mobile will update itself.

If you are not connected to the Internet all the time, BullGuard Mobile will check for updates immediately after you connect to the Internet.

If you want to check for updates manually or change the way BullGuard updates, please read the guide below.

Note: This guide is for BullGuard Mobile 2.0. If you are using a different version, choose the following guide: BullGuard Mobile 1.5
