** AVG update error on 64-bit systems **

Several AVG Free Forum visitors reported non-functional update process on their 64-bit systems. The update process seemingly stalls when analyzing downloaded update files. Based on the so far provided diagnostic data, the update installation process is "correctly" closed (prematurely). The issue may well be caused by a software conflict or possibly by a hidden infection. Unfortunately, we were not able to induce the issue in our environment so far.
Should you meet similar update issue, please contact AVG technical support or alternatively provide forum moderators with all needed information as described in this forum thread.
