is it just me or do other people who run AVG have a problem updating, their site is extremly slow, been trying to get update for 2 days now
get about half way through and then just hangs,(i click on control center/update)even went to their site to just download file direclty from to no avail(usually get about a whopping 1-2 KB per sec) but never finishes
right now i'm at 1.6KB per sec, 97% complete, and stopped, been hanging here for about 15min:(

Try going to the AVG Control Centre fron the tray icon and select the Update Manager.
In the URL for the the update replace

"www.grisoft.com"

with

"www.grisoft.cz." (w/out the " of course)

This will take you to the Czech site for the update and you will find a speedy update result.

Guess that has already been done though. (another forum?)

Try the alternative and get future updates from there. ;)
