Hello Sir,
 
I want to download a file in particular website daily.
 
The file name is changed but the extension doesnot changed.
 
For example
 
I want to download Symantec Antivirus corporate edition updates
 
located in this website
 
http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/download/pages/US-SAVCE.html
 
file name : vd20b203.xdb
 
The file name was changed daily. But the extension ".xdb" was not changed.
 
I want to automatically download a file in my location.
 
Not for automatic updates in antivirus software.
 
Whether any software or feature is available in windows.
 
Thank You.

Use FTP client and a batch script to download such files e.g.
 
ftp -A -s symantec.txt
 
Symantec.txt:
open ftp.symantec.com
cd AVDEFS/norton_antivirus_xdb
binary
mget *.xdb
quit
 
Then put the ftp command in a batch file and run it via Scheduled Tasks.

Try this:

Code:
ftp -A -s:symantec.txt
instead of this:
 

Code:
ftp -A -s symantec.txt 
 
So in your batch file:

Code:
ftp -A -s:symantec.txt
and in symantec.txt:

Code:
open ftp.symantec.comcd AVDEFS/norton_antivirus_xdbbinarymget *.xdbquit

Why not use the automatic update ?
