I know this doesn't help, but on a craptop with Win2k I had an AVG install that refused to Auto-protect. I could open it up and scan scan away but it would never autoprotect. Never figured out what it was since I wiped the install about a 2 weeks after.

What message are you getting ? If it is that the file can't be found on the server, they are having problems.

Are you on a 24/7 box ?
is the start tray symbol greyed out ?
if so it might be you need to re-boot.
so now I'm in my SIXTIES FFS
WTAF, how did that happen, so no more alterations to the sig, it will remain as is now

Hi, to everyone and thank you again for the replies
Are you on a 24/7 box? Yes I am.
Is the start tray symbol greyed out? Yes it is
If so it might be you need to re-boot. Did already four times and nothing. no idea I even uninstall it and install it back and nothing. I’m clueless “more than usual”
What message are you getting? The update can't be retrieved from the server.

Should be all working well now.. has been for my systems since 11:30 UTC.
This isnt the first time tha Grisoft have had server problems, and probably wont be the last. Never known the problem to exist for more than 24hrs.
If you ever encounter this problem whay not follow this advice
I manually downloaded the latest file u7iavi151wf.bin on this page: [free.grisoft.com]
found on the links given by hesperus, but we have ALL read the info given didnt we.
Personaly I would only bother with the manual download if:
The problem Existed for more than a day
or
I had a cleanup job and I wanted to have all bases covered - or the infection is very recent (**** most repairs I have the infection is better than 48hrs old b4 I see them)

Hello,
thank’s for your help everyone. Well What I finally decided to do was to install back an old copy of Norton 04 That I had around for a wile. I’m too paranoid if I don’t get an updated for mor than a couple hours I think my computer. Is invaded by some evil virus or worse Even thought I have to say I like avg antivirus very much and not only because is free. I do appreciate your replies and your thoughts.
