I've had a script running for a while that downloads the updated Intelligent Updater from Symantec every day and installs the new virus definitions for me. But in the past week, for some reason it appears that Symantec's site is denying my script access to download the file.

Has anyone else that uses SAV had this problem before? I actually had this issue before, but then it seemed to have corrected itself. Could it be that my script is trying to access the file when there are too many other users out there trying to access it? Any input would be appreciated.

Do you have your script set to run at a very common time (such as 12:00)? It's generally considered bad practice to automatically download files at X:00 or X:30 -- it is best to choose a random number of minutes after the hour, to help distribute the load on their servers.
