Updating Glary Utilities by Dick Evans www.rwevan.com I like using Glary Utilities. It has an easy to use interface with one click access. And the Advanced Tools contains many useful items such as a quick defragger and and easy to use program uninstaller. But it is always telling us there is an update available. Glary is not an antivirus, but the malware it is looking for changes with the inclusion of new threats on the Internet. If we do not get the latest update we are leaving our computer open to harboring a piece of harmful malware. So, yes, it is important to allow the updates. Just be careful what you click on. This screen is telling us there is an update available. And we do want to do the update. Press OK. 1
