Yes, Products can be updated for free. Its actually recommended to update it.
Right click AVG tray icon, and update AVG. You must have an open internet connection to do this.
If you have the purchased version of avg then yes the updates are free as well. I think they also have a free version, or used to, that you can update as well, but its not as good.
AVG is an anti virus and will not update your firewall .If your firewall is from another vendor.AVG can only update the virus signatures
I use AVG antivirus free edition, its latest update detected and 'healed' (removed) this Trojan no problem at all. AVG Free edition is available from WWW.Grisoft.com (No i don't work for them!)
AVG Free is the BEST Reasons, 1. It is 100% free 2. An option to Scan USB devices automatically When you plugged in a USB device to your PC, AVG will start to scan it automatically 3. Resident shield Auto scan, files and folders when you open, (if you double click a virus, no harm to your PC, AVG will block it in a second with a warning and will ask from you to delete) 4. Auto update with less data usage I use AVG Free. I have monitored its weekly auto updates and it use approximately 500KB per week for update 5. No affect to system speed I haven't feel any affect from AVG Free to my PC speed (I'm using Core 2due, 2GB ram, Windows 7 ultimate) 6. Version update 100% free When AVG release a new version, your older version will ask from you to auto update for free
This error occurs when you use an old setup file to install and then all AVG to update itself. ALWAYS download the latest installer and use it.
I have just updated my free AVG 6 anti virus program today and it caught and healed the Trojan horse downloader.Siboco.B virus. so my suggestion to you is to update your AVG.7 or download the free one.
To update AVG antivirus software, one should go to the AVG site and choose the option for downloading the latest virus definitions. To make this process easier, you can choose to have the definitions automatically updated or have AVG contact you when updates are available.
No!!!!! Allways get the latest! I recommend right now avg free 8.5 Up to date is the best!
Install a good anti-virus program like AVG which has a reliable free version and update it regularly.
Apart from avg internet security (paid) there is a free version of avg a-v available !!!!!!!!Download it from "www.download.com"
