Symantec's distribution of downloads utilizes a third-party content delivery network (Akamai) to ensure high availability for our customers, and to preclude any problems with specific servers (for example, off-line for maintenance reasons, or extremely heavy server load) or with the Internet (for example network congestion).
(taken from the Symantec website, just search on Akamai) Regards, Mike Hi, can someone tell me if NAV update was spoofed here? <smaller>8/20/01, 16:00:32 PM GMT -> Progress Update: HOST_SELECTED: HostName: "liveupdate.symantec.com" URL: "http://liveupdate.symantec.com" HostNumber: 0 8/20/01, 16:00:32 PM GMT -> Progress Update: UNZIP_FILE_START: Zip File: "C:\WINDOWS\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\LiveUpdate\Downloads\livetri.zip", Dest Folder: "C:\WINDOWS\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\LiveUpdate\Downloads" 8/20/01, 16:00:32 PM GMT -> Progress Update: UNZIP_FILE_FINISH: Zip File: "C:\WINDOWS\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\LiveUpdate\Downloads\livetri.zip", Dest Folder: "C:\WINDOWS\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\LiveUpdate\Downloads", HR: 0x0 8/20/01, 16:01:02 PM GMT -> GetUpdates: Avenge 1.5 MicroDefs, MicroDefsB.Full, English ==> ennfullb.x86 8/20/01, 16:01:02 PM GMT -> GetUpdates: NAV95, 6.10.20, ENGLISH ==> enna0530.x00 8/20/01, 16:01:02 PM GMT -> Progress Update: DOWNLOAD_BATCH_START: Files to download: 2, Estimated total size: 2970837 8/20/01, 16:01:02 PM GMT -> Progress Update: DOWNLOAD_FILE_START: URL: "http://a240.g.akamai.net/3/240/1271/0e8c31e2178a11/liveupdate.symantec.com/ennfullb.x86", Estimated Size: 2722962, Destination Folder: "C:\WINDOWS\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\LiveUpdate\Downloads" 8/20/01, 16:01:03 PM GMT -> Progress Update: DOWNLOAD_FILE_RESUMING: URL: "http://a240.g.akamai.net/3/240/1271/0e8c31e2178a11/liveupdate.symantec.com/ennfullb.x86", Full Download Path: "C:\WINDOWS\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\LiveUpdate\Downloads\ennfullb.x86", partial size: 1157120, full size: 1565842 Just not sure where the http://a240.g.akamai.net came from in the middle of this update.
