1. Download the latest update files from http://rapidshare.com/users/12TMR5.
2. Extract to any folder. You should get a folder called "nod_upd" along with the update files inside.
3. Burn that folder on to a CD or DVD, ensuring that the folder "nod_upd" is in the root of the disc, i.e. the path to the files should read like E:\nod_upd\. This is very important.
4. Take the disc to the PC which you want to update and insert it into the drive.
5. Open up the NOD32 Control Center by clicking on the system tray icon.
6. Open the "Update" screen and click on "Setup"
7. In the "Server" dropdown list, choose the last item which should point to your CD-ROM drive. If you have multiple items there (i.e. E:\nod_upd and F:\nod_upd), ensure that you choose the drive that you inserted the disc into.
8. Click OK to close the update setup window.
9. Back at the update screen, click "Update now".
After a brief pause, your NOD32 should be updated!
If it doesn't do that and/or it gives you an error, please ensure that you performed step #3 and step #7 correctly - that's most likely where the problem is.
You only need to do the settings once. After that, keep coming back here for monthly updates and you can skip step #7 and #8.
Update (7/10/07): If you want to update off a USB drive or a folder on your hard drive and avoid burning a disc, try the following. Warning: This requires a registry modification, so don't do this if you don't know what you're doing.

ATI Radeon HD 2900 XT Video Card Review
August 2006
seems like a very long time ago in terms of video card technology. That was the last time that ATI, now AMD, launched any type of high-end video card. The X1950 for its time was the hands down winner of just about everything we could throw at it. It had great features and did things like Folding@home that NVIDIA could not. Fast forward to today and you would be crazy to suggest any high-end AMD video card because the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 series thoroughly whips anything ATI branded.
We have been hearing for many moons that the successor to the X1950XTX has been in the works, but only rumors that it existed and would be launched. Finally, just hours after many of you have pampered your mother, AMD is launching their next generation video cards. Dubbed the HD 2000 series, we have in our hands a HD 2900XT which was developed under the code name “R600.” To say that AMD has some ground to make up is an understatement; NVIDIA has a six-month head start on them with the launch of their DirectX 10 ready 8800 series in November.
Contrary to what you may believe, the HD 2900XT that we are looking at here today is not meant to compete against NVIDIA’s 8800 Ultra or even the GTX. Instead AMD aimed at a lower price target, the 8800 GTS. With a launch price of $399 AMD intends to take the mid/high end market segment instead of going after the faster 8800 GTX and Ultra. As much as they want to sugar coat it, the R600 in its current iteration is just not capable of getting the clock speed up to the level needed to go toe to toe with the GTX/Ultra in every situation. As you will see, the R600 has some very bright spots but also leaves a bit to be desired depending on the game tested. We have even thrown in a DirectX 10 benchmark to see how things shape up between the HD 2900XT and 8800 GTX in what are the first tests that can actually make the claim of putting this highly anticipated new feature set to use. Frankly, it’s about damn time that we got a taste of DX 10! Sit back, grab a cup of joe, and read on to see AMD’s entry into the DX10 foray.
