AVG requires that the old version be uninstalled before installing an update. I almost always go off-line to install any software. I remain online when only stub installers are available; stub installers require an Internet connection to download addition files. However, AVG is always available as a complete installer; so going off-line is not a problem for updating it. -- David E. Ross The Crimea is Putin's Sudetenland.
