windows - Getting Notified that a Virus Definition Update is Available for Microsoft Security Essentials

I have to perform regular offline updates on Microsoft Security Essentials Virus definition files for a computer not hooked up to the internet.

I found the following KB article with a link to the offline file definitions:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971606

but the link does not say when the definition file was published.

Does Microsoft have a RSS feed, mailing list, or other communication method that I can sign up for so that I can know when definitions are updated?

Answer

You can check the Microsoft Antimalware and Microsoft Antivirus definition RSS feeds at:

and
