Quake3World

Is it me or is it a fault at AVG's end? Anyone else getting this problem? It'll start updating, do nothing for a while then say update failed.

I get the same.
Just chill, all will be well again in the morning.

ver 7.5?

i just did an update, no problems.

Works fine for me.

version. 8. 0

Does this problam have anything to do with service pack 3 being installed last night?

Oh I'm on 7.5. I find 8.0 to be a load of rubbish

Fortunately, I still have my 7.5 installation exe so I've uninstalled 8.0 and put 7.5 back.
It's a shame though, the 8.0 taskbar icon was purdy.

I went back to 7.5 as well. However, you can tweak 8.0 to make it less retarded...important since 7.5 support ends sometime this winter afaik.

Thanks, when support ends I'll refer back to this link to set up 8.0

Jesus christ, just don't install link scanner and email scanner and you're set.

8.0 was ok again a couple of hours later, btw.
I don't really understand the panic; it's not like you're unprotected. Your definitions just get updated a little later.

i ditch AVG soon , it's not protecting us from a virus that's floating around the zillion memory sticks we have at work.

our IT guy is too lazy so i've had to dis-infect 4 laptop and 7 memory sticks manually.
going to give AVAST a try very soon

Avast misses a ton of shit.

Small stuff or big stuff?

I ran AVG 8 and it said everything was fine. For kicks, I uninstalled AVG and intalled Avast...ran Avast....and it found 32 trojans and trackers. Hmmm. I kept the Avast.
