There are several ways to obtain software updates and information about those updates:
- Visit a vendor's Web site and download the update from an update section or software library.
- Register to receive email on the latest patches, versions, and anti-virus software. Most vendors send free email notifications and updates. There are sites around the Web, such as Dr. Patch, that also provide update information via email.
- Install a software management solution that automatically finds applicable and appropriate software updates for your desktop or network. These programs track and notify you to new updates and will download the updates that you select.
