Kaspersky Rescue CD (the free one), Updates Options

[ITchyBro]

Hi all. I'm new here, though I'm an old tech.

Found a link here: http://www.techmixer.com/kaspersky-rescue-...2009-using-dos/ to KAV's rescue CD so I thought I'd try it.

It seems to work pretty well, but I wondered about the online updating procedure. I mean, KAV updates are freely (I'm assuming?) available from here: http://www.kaspersky.com/avupdates/zip and the procedure for getting them ready for use is straightforward (extracting them to a 'kavdefs' folder starting with the history pack, then weekly, then daily, overwriting as required)

So I just wondered: Why not occasionally upgrade the RescueCD ISO\CDRW so that the online updates would be smaller and quicker to apply?

Hey, I'm no Kaspersky expert. For all I know the updates from the link above may be totally unsuitable for the Rescue package. But comparing the update files with those in the ISO seem to show a lot of similarities.

Apologies if this question has been covered, but I had a quick look around the forum and I couldn't see any specific references to the points I've covered.

Thanks :-)
