AVG download update? (1 Viewer)

[sladehk]

I have some problem with downloading AVG updates after they changed the download source from grisoft to some random server. Anyone else with this problem? (the download rate starts at 10kb then drops to 0, then restarts I'll see if it works when my cable is refilled next month)

Updates work fine for me.
Are you using Version 7? Version 6 is not being supported anymore that could be why.

with AVG u should try to update it at least once every 2 week. There's almost always a small update available. If you leave it un-updated for a long time...it will no longer update properly. I had simliar problems.

If you are using free version try downloading it again:

Nope it works again today n i haven't done anything on updating it manually.
I know the problem:
As previously I my computer started up with AVG to have full access to the net (firewall setting) and the AVG Auto-Updater automatically attempting to connect to the net but i haven't actually logged into my ISP so I clicked cancel. This apparently causes some weird things to happen.
Now the AVG net access is set to 'Ask' - I can allow net access once confirmed im online.
