Alert Settings

OfficeScan can display notifications during the following instances:

The Virus Pattern Remains Outdated After a Certain Number of Days

An alert icon displays on the Windows task bar to remind users to update the Virus Pattern. All clients managed by the server will apply this setting.

Client Users Need to Restart their Computers to Load a Kernel Mode Driver

After installing a hot fix or an upgrade package that contains a new version of a kernel mode driver, the driver’s previous version may still exist on the computer. The only way to unload the previous version and load the new one is to restart the computer. After restarting the computer, the new version automatically installs and no further restart is necessary.

The notification message displays immediately after a client computer installs the hot fix or upgrade package.
