398077 2005-10-21 03:16:00 Got a note sent to me about AVG/Grisoft updates:

Here it is C/P:

Currently the AVG 7 Free update servers are having technical problems and will be resolved as soon as possible .

Your AVG will still provide you the protection you need, they just won't be able to update normally and the icon in the system tray will likely turn from the normal colors to the black and white indicating a problem .

If needed, you may update manually even though this isn't recommended . Note . . the servers that supply the manual updates have been getting overloaded since the automatic servers are having problems . . . be patient and you will eventually get in .

We will remove this notice as soon as we see the updates working again . We (the Moderator's) will likely not respond to questions concerning this since there is nothing else that they can do about this until the situation is resolved . Feel free to discuss this as you wish .

. . . . . . . . and I thought I broke it!!!!

398078 2005-10-21 03:21:00 this might be why my avg cuts out randomly when downloading updates... Prescott (11)
398079 2005-10-21 03:45:00 I downloaded the update, dated 20 October, manually this afternoon, as the auto update was not working. Terry Porritt (14)
398080 2005-10-21 03:48:00 I tried that too...but in my case, I could not connect to Grisoft's site after a half dozen attempts...


kinda like the problem I wuz having last few days with F1....but I see somebody kicked the hamster back onto the wheel and it seems to be ok now.

398083 2005-10-21 04:34:00 I have the AVG forum up and running on a different page here, and they say it is not fixed yet . . . oh well .

I even refreshed the page and it hasn't changed yet . . . .

398085 2005-10-21 14:52:00 AVG is blacked out here yet . . . this is Friday morning at 7:38 (-7GMT)

It won't update . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . nor will it manually do so .

. . . . . might just be the load from users getting updates making it too busy . . .
