Is anyone else having problems with downloading AVG updates?
AVG will show me that there is an update available.
However, when I click the UPDATE button, it will try, then display a popup message stating:
"The requested file cannot be found on the update server"
Have been trying all day, periodically. All other Internet access is fine.

Me too, this AM (21st) it worked like a charm.
It must have just been a kink in the AVG update server somewhere.

All during the problem the first sticky post on the Update Problems on the AVG FORUMS said exactly what was causing the problem. You know the ones.....the first place you should check when you have hassles with AVG.....the link that came up with the error message.......

ME, NEVER! But sometimes, just sometimes, a link in an error message is a good place to start. Then again, no questions, no forum.
