Basil, have you tried using Marianna's tip to add two AVG server's to your update file listed here? http://reviews.cnet.com/5208-6132-0.html?forumID=32&threadID=14034&messageID=159814
Sorry if this has been discussed before.
Has anyone an explanation for the fact the I could not download the last three AVG (free) updates from AVG control centre and had to go to their site. (Was this just a matter of them being busy?)
And: why, when I downloaded the(usually 4) items, did two of them take 12-15 mins to download when AVG normally sends short downloads, and even when they sent long ones they did not seem to take that long???
