You receive your Sophos Anti-Virus updates either on CD or by downloading them from the Sophos website, depending upon your account type. Sophos Anti-Virus updates are distributed on CD and are sent out to arrive in the UK on the first Monday of each month. CDs for non-UK customers are sent by airmail and may not arrive until a few days later. You will need a password to do this. If you do not know your password, you can get it by emailing customer services with details of your account.
Interim updates are also occasionally available from the website.
