not sure if this is in the right spot or not
but can some one tell how programs update and if there is a Heart beat side
or what ever they use programs like virus scanners an fix it programs or win cleaners

not sure if it is what you are asking for

most of the virus scanners control the firewall so they have permanent access to the internet and whenever the publisher pushs a new update the program will install it

programs like win cleaners check for updates when you open them and while they are running

what do you mean by heart beat side?
