MY AVG A.BIN IS MISSING!!!!?

Question

I Cant Update My AVG 8.0. I Update It then Something Says a A.bin is missing and the Anti Virus and Anti - Spyware is outdated and the Update Manager says a A.Bin file missing

Answer 1

just did a update and its working now

Answer 2

The missing .bin file is a part of the set of update files sent everyday...it's just that the .AVG update servers didn't distribute the .bin file along with the other files that make up the virus database update, so the AVG program rejected todays update and is still using yesterday's virus database. That means that you're still protected and the program is working. AVG updates the program everyday, so at the very least the missing .bin file problem will be corrected within 24 hours.

DO NOT REINSTALL the program. When you do that you actually put your PC at greater risk because the AVG install file on the website will not include the most recent virus database - you will end up using a database that may be as much as a week old, maybe more. Just leave the program as is and the .bin problem will go away within the next 24 hours.
