    Hi folks,

    All I want to know is if I have unmanaged Endpoint client installed on my machine only with Antivirus & Antispyware features, will it download the definitions for NTP & PTP as well????

    Please do a research and let me know about it, Please response asap, Thank you

    It will only download virus definitions.

    You can verify that very easily by just launching a liveupdate session manually and looking at the files downloaded.  (a switch to interactive mode in Control Panel / Symantec Liveupdate makes it easier to see)

    Regards.

    When Antivirus and Anti Spyware is installed , it will Only download the  defntion fot AV and AVS and Not NTP and PTP.

    You get that information from log.liveupdate also from C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\LiveUpdate
