Catherine, try right clicking the icon in the task bar and try selecting one
of the options.  Try to open the scanning window from it or something.  This
should then throw up an error message saying it needs to restart the
machine, and would you like to do it now?  Hit the yes button and see if it
cures the issue.  It may well have downloaded another update by itself in
the meantime and needs restarting again.  

If this works, then go in and try and do a manual update.  

Hth,

Hello Mark,

When I restart the computer there's still an icon in the system tray saying
it's necessary to restart the computer for the update process to complete. 
And I'm still not getting the message I used to get saying AVG was
downloading the latest update.  Seems wrong...
