I find that updating in the evening does the trick here. It won't get thru to the update site any other time. I can try all day long with no luck. But wait till AFTER 6pm and bingo..goes thru without a hitch. THEN there is the case of using another web site..if you go into the AVG ini file and change it to add another url...at least it USED to work..havn't tried that since I got the latest AVG. Have to look that up again and see if it's workable. I think it was Lionel that had the " presciption " for that change.

The dialog box states that AVG failed to Update. No kidding, it has been the same for 3 days. Is anyone else having this problem? Rocky de Dragon -- Internal Virus Database is out-of-date.
