AVG ANTI VIRUS OUT OF DATE. This flashes up every time I switch my Laptop on. What do I do??? ?

Question

I thought it would just update or something, what am I doing wrong or is it time to get out the wallet and get some new gear or can I get some freebies. Even better, shall I be naughty and download the latest for free from http://torrentz.com Naughty is my middle name, ask Tam.

Answer 1

Well a good idea would be to update it?

It's just saying your computer is not protected, so you could ignore it, but that is inadvisable.

Update it for new software that is still working.

I had a virus because i didn't update, then installed Norton 360, and the virus was there a few days, and disappeared.

Answer 2

They are experiencing problems with the updates, i have had to go to Avast as i had this same prob and couldn't get around it, here is a link to their forum explaining this issue..

Version 8 currently has an update problem. Something about not finding a bin file. The word is that this will be sorted out in a day or two.

Answer 4

Answer 6

Look at the settings and make sure it is automatically updating or manually update it. If you don't have the latest version you can get it free from the official website

Answer 7

8.0 is the current version. Are you still running 7.5? You need to manually update.

And yeah, download it from torrentz.  Don't forget to come back and ask for help removing trojans afterwards.
