Clint, if you are considering buying the product, contact sales for tech support. That's what the web site says.
The online up date still doesn't work for me either. As I remember one time before it was out for a couple of weeks. I just tried the manual update from http://www.ewido.net/en/download/updates/. The download from there installs new .dat files correctly but the AVG program still shows no update in it's info. I assume that it would use the new signatures when it scans. Avg Anti spyware is not nearly as good in the free version as the A/V product. And while I'm on the subject. I'm beginning to suspect that all this anti spyware software is nothing but marketing. I've installed a bunch of these programs over the last few years and none of them have ever found anything but some tracking cookies which I periodically get rid of myself with other programs. I'm not even sure what they are supposed to find and if you read the web sites they are sort of vague on that point. What threat exactly is one of these programs going to find that you're a/v program wouldn't find? I would copy you on this mail, Clint but I have no idea what a good email address for you is anymore.

Ben and Larry, thanks for the replies. (I'm not receiving ANY email from this list at all.....again, and also once again only a portion of my posts are making it to the list). I will NEVER get any AVG product due to their total lack of support. In fact, there's not even any way to register at their forums! If you send an email to AVG, they bounce all email back that has no registration # in it, but you can't get a registration # unless you BUY their product, and who's going to buy something that won't work?? It's a causality loop. Have you tried to update it manually (and if so, what's the process for that?)

It's done this before. The AVG AV free updates ok. Obviously different servers. Ben Moore days back I installed it and it was updating ok. Now I keep getting "Downloading updates.....receive data......Error: server is not ready to serve" or something like that (kind of an oxymoron isn't it. LOL). I would assume the same thing would happen when trying to update AVG AV. Thanks, -Clint ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
