Upgrading from the NetBotz Web Site

4. If the version of the BotzWare and Advanced View are newer on the updates site, then the checkbox will be enabled. Simply check the boxes to upgrade the BotzWare or Advanced View or both then click on the OK button.
5. At this point, the Advanced View will download the selected BotzWare, upgrade the appliance and/or the Advanced View.
