Hotfix1 is already released. Kindly try to get your NAS connected on the Internet and reboot

Found some messages concerning this issue.
Also read a line: [Hotfix 1] Fixed failure of anti-virus DB download
If I am right, this concerns a hotfix on firmware release 6.10.4
I already installed firmware release 6.10.5
- Would the hotfix be included in this latest release?
The error message keeps reappearing on a daily basis.
- What is the most recent version of the virus software?
- How can I find out the version of the virus software my NAS is currently using?
Can anybody help me out?

I may have purchased this with 4 2TB drives.
Serial # 4FHC855400193
Firmware 6.10.3
You folks should know the OS, I do not.
This has not been able to auto update the AV since Sept 18th. It's under warranty right? You folks do support your product? RIGHT???
