First time the utility is launched all databases and modules necessary for the application and released to the present moment are loaded into a special folder, which resides in the folder with the update utility. Due to a large size of updates the first start of the utility usually takes some time. With each next start only missing, i.e. recently released, databases and modules will be loaded into the folder.
If you have to update both Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2009 and Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 with the same builds, use the set of databases/modules for Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 of the corresponding build. Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2009 can update correctly from the created folder with the databases.
2. Unpack the downloaded set on another computer which is connected to the Internet or onto a flash-carrier which is connected to the computer with the Internet connection.
Pay attention, the full path to the folder with the update utility should contain only Latin symbols!
3. The first launch of the utility will take some time, as all necessary databases/modules, released so far, are downloaded into the folder of the update utility (the approximate size of updates is 32-36MB). To reduce the size of the downloaded traffic you can copy the databases from the computer with the installed Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2009 or Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 into the folder of the update utility (THIS IS NOT OBLIGATORY).
For this before you start the utility the first time, do the following:
-
in the folder into which the utility has been unpacked, create the Temp folder;
-
into the Temp folder copy the folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Kaspersky Lab\AVP8\Data\Updater\Temporary Files\temporaryFolder from the computer with installed Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2009 or Kaspersky Internet Security 2009.
4. From the unpacked folder run the file Updater.bat (double-click the file to run it).
Once the file is started, the following window appears on the screen:
The window shows that the copying process has started (the path to the file Updater.exe, shown in the figure may vary from the path shown in the window on your computer).
5. When the window disappears, in the folder of the update utility open the file iupdater.txt and make sure the file contains the following record (implying successful update):
The actual set of databases and modules is copied into the Updates subfolder of the folder, from which the file Updater.bat has been run.
Report of the utility work is written in the report.txt file. With each utility start the report will be overwritten.
6. Configure update of Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2009 or Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 from the Updates folder, into which the updates have been saved.
For it:
-
Open the application main window;
-
Click the Settings button;
-
Select the Update menu in the left part of the window;
-
Click the Settings button in the right part of the window;
-
Click the Add link;
-
Select the folder into which the application databases and modules were saved by the utility (the Updates subfolder in the folder of the update utility) and click OK
-
On he Source tab clear the box for Kaspersky Lab’s update servers;
-
Click OK to close each window
-
Run the update process to update the databases and application modules.

Additional information about the utility
For it open the file Updater.bat for editing and in the line add the command:
-tf trace.txt
For example,
Updater.exe -u -c -o kis8_454.ini -tf trace.txt > report.txt
Once the performed changes are saved, run the file Updater.bat and when the utility work is over and the error is reproduced, send the received trace log (the file trace.txt from the utility folder) to the Technical Support service via the HelpDesk form.
- For the information in the report file report.txt to be ADDED (not overwritten) during the next launch of the utility, open the file Updater.bat for editing and in the line add the symbol >.
For example, you had the line:
Updater.exe -u -c -o kis8_454.ini > report.txt
and it changed to:
Updater.exe -u -c -o kis8_454.ini >> report.txt
