    Using Avg Free editon version 8.0
    « on: August 18, 2008, 09:59:06 AM »
    When I started the Anti virus program it reports an error at the top of the program. It says you may not be protected! some components report an error. When I updated the program it says the update needs a restart. When I restart the compuer hoping that the update will fix the error, it doesnt. It states both the error again and the computer needs to restart. I reinstalled the program but nothing seems to work.

      What does the error say?  I had the an error a few days ago when it tried to update, but should hopefully be fixed by the AVG team.  Post back with what the error message says.

      There was a problem over the weekend with a corrupt update.

      Try manually updating from here http://majorgeeks.com/AVG_Anti-Virus_Update_d4478.html

      Last night, I actually dreamt of an error-free AVG 8...
