I don't believe Symantec updates their definitions more than once a week. Certainly not for us poor home users.....
you can update all you want, but the file won't change.
The following are my experiences with new defs from Symantec:
Liveupdate: 1-2 times per week, they save up the 'non important' viruses. Intelligent updater: 1-2 per day. Beta intelligent updater: multiple times per day.
The catch is, that Joe Homeuser only uses liveupdate. If he wants to stay up-to-date, he has to grab the (beta) intelligent updates manually. Run them manually (this can be scripted, Symantec has some batch files on their website if you search long enough.)
Symantec's corporate products can be configured to update more often, than standard liveupdate.
