Title: Software Updater
Post by: midnight on September 19, 2013, 08:19:03 PM
Showed that Adobe Air needed to be updated so I clicked on update.  One it started updating I noticed the download was from download.com which I hate.  Went to the Adobe Website and updated it from there.

This part of Avast really sucks!   ::)

Provided the download from download.com was the actual download, what's the difference.
If you don't like that part of avast!, then don't use it. You have a choice. :)

It was the actual download.  I never download anything from there or CNet.

As long as you don't use their download manager, there isn't any problem in downloading from there.
Again, you have a choice. :)
