AVG Update Problem

Up the ram to 1/2 gB if you can. It really will help and it is very cheap.

Thanks. I'll try it. I have nothing to lose at this juncture. I already use Firefox exclusively.

Switch to Avast. Free and it works better. avast.com

Good Lord my age is showing. When I read the title to this post, my mind connected AVG with American Volunteer Group a.k.a. the "Flying Tigers"
What a Hoot.

I had some problems with AVG for a few days and it was telling me to update. Then I went to the icon, right- clicked and found out that somehow the date and time were wrong (for instance, the date said January 31, 2000!). When I straightened that out, it brought itself up to date and I haven't had any more problems with it. One clue is that during the time it was telling me I needed to update, the little icon on my pop-up start menu was black and white, and then when I fixed the time/date problem the usual AVG colors were back on the icon.

I have AVG (free edition) and have had the same problem -- says "internet connection failed".....I uninstalled the program and tried to update again....the same thing...then I rebooted and it UPDATED! Then again today it didn't update in the morning but DID update in the afternoon....I don't know what's going on....like someone else on this thread said, perhaps it is just an overloaded server at the AVG website....at any rate, know that you are not alone...

I successfully updated on Friday per post #11. When I read your post just now, I tried the normal method again and it worked. Had to have been an AVG problem.
