Sophos auto updates - schedule a specific time?

galfromaway

Is it possible to schedule a specific time of day when Sophos downloads its regular updates?

I'm finding that my system slows down considerably when the auto update starts. I see in the preferences I can change how often the updates happen (every day, etc.), but is there a way to schedule the time of day when those auto updates happen?

Thanks in advance.

    Hello galfromaway,

    my system slows down considerably when the auto update starts

    is this in every cycle (1 hour with the default settings) when it just checks or only when it actually updates (i.e. has one or more IDEs to download)? As you've seen yourself you can only set an interval, but maybe you can work around the problem as I've suggested  in Re: How much bandwidth does an update consume? Can I schedule/approve downloads?.
