Rick,
When you figure out the problem would you let us know? I am deciding
between AVAST and AVG for an anti virus program and don't want AVG if there
are update problems with it.
BTW... did you properly configure your firewall to allow the update function
of AVG to access the Internet? Apparently a lot of people didn't because it
is a very obvious link on the AVG Free download page. It opens a PDF file
so you will need Adobe or some other PDF reader.

If that doesn't work try this:
