Dr.Web 9.0 for Android updated

December 12, 2013

Russian anti-virus company Doctor Web has updated Dr.Web 9.0 for Android. The update ensures the anti-virus is compatible with Google Hangouts for Android 4.3 and later.

The update resolves issues involving short messages from numbers on the anti-spam's black list not being blocked and SMS commands for Dr.Web Anti-theft not being executed.

Minor interface tweaks have improved the product's usability.

Dr.Web for Android will be updated automatically. If automatic updates are disabled on the device, go to Google Play, choose Dr.Web Anti-virus or Dr.Web Anti-Virus Life license on the application list, and click "Update”.

To update via the Doctor Web site, you need to download a new distribution file. If the option “New application version” is enabled, a new version notification will be displayed when updating the virus databases. You can start the download directly from this dialogue box.
