McAfee .DAT Updates

Some time ago, I asked how I could continue to get .dat file updates without having to sign up for another year. I believe someone referred to it as a "backdoor" to access these files. I am currently recovering from a hard drive failure and replacement. Sadly, I seem to have lost this link. I'm learning the hard way what I really should be backing up. However that nice person was to help me back then, could I impose upon you to repost that link. I promise I will save this link in some better place than My Documents. Thanks!

    You can probably get what you are looking for at:
    http://download.mcafee.com/updates/updates.asp

    That is where I was getting them until a few weeks ago when I finally gave up on the system freezing problems from them and uninstalled McAfee and installed Norton.
