Sue, as no-one has an answer, I'll say that I think you did the right
thing.  I don't know about your updates, I only know that Avast tells me
it's updated things regularly, so I just let it do its own thing.

Over the last couple of days, Avast has detected a virus in two e-mails 
which I've received.  When I heard the caution message, I deleted the 
viruses but it said on both occasions that the malware had been removed
from 
my computer.  I noticed that there were several options to choose from,
EG 
take no action, delete, move to chest etc.  I deleted the viruses, as I 
said, but I'm not sure whether that was the right thing to do.

I'd be grateful for some advice on this please as this may happen again
in 
the future.

I would also like to know what iavs means from the update menu.  There
is 
programs update and iavs update which I'm assuming is something to do
with 
the internet but I'd like some clarity on that as well.

Thanks.

Sue.
