volt Posted March 9, 2003 Share Posted March 9, 2003 I've not had an AVG update since Feb. 25th. Any comments ? What good would a comment do?? get another virus scanner would be the only thing I can think of to correct that problem. I think I'll just continue to use safe email practices and hope for the best. I have the one below downloaded but have not installed it yet,,Radio is using it with norton I think. http://www.gladiator-antivirus.com/ Link to post Share on other sites

bsadowski1 Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 I've not had an AVG update since Feb. 25th. Any comments ? They did update it March 10. Link to post Share on other sites
Ax Slinger Posted March 12, 2003 Share Posted March 12, 2003 I've not had an AVG update since Feb. 25th. Any comments ?I got an AVG engine update on the 26th (it was a big one, and I had to reboot afterwards, which normally isn't required), and at least one virus info update that I know of since Feb. 25th. I do have it set on autopilot so it checks for updates at Midnight, but I have a habit of checking manually when I turn my computer on every day, so it never needs to download one.
