    Unhappy AVG Update problem

    Bit strange, when trying to download AVG Update with Firefox I was unable to establish a connection, error message unable to make connection, timed out at one point, Checked Update Manager but could not fine Configuration butto, also checked Firewall (Sygate ) set to allow access in applications. Now it gets odd, switched to IE download went without a hitch. Don't know if this matters but was alerted to Update by Microsoft Security Centre. Hope you can make sence of this.

    It's just because Grisoft's servers are so busy TDD. I have AVG7 and it took me almost a full day of trying, to update it.
    I'm afraid it's just a case of try then try again .

    I don't use that program.

    You have to update it manually?

    That would suck!!

    I would forget about it and maybe update once every couple of months.

    Then is the server was busy it would be a couple more months.

    I would be getting hit with viruses all the time.

    Think god for my Norton.

    It updates on a daily bases by itself.

    If there are any priority updates it sends you a message so you don't have to wait until the next scheduled update Ren .

    I'd rather having AVG popping up every so often than something nastier....

    My AVG seems to autoconnect at startup and then periodically every so often and I've never had a problem with it tbh oh, except it doesn't run on Windows Server 2003 anymore, grrrr
