Hello
I have clicked on http://www.avast.com/eng/avast-subscription-service.html inside the mail but I got a 404 page.

Sorry, don't run better!! look at this, I got this msg after I have sent the mail address:
404 Page not foundThe server has not found anything matching the Request-URI.
Request-URI: eng/successfull_email_ia.html.

Well the second link works for me.
The first URL is a 404 error as you mentioned, however I'm not sure of the validity of that URL as in avast 5.0 there are no push updates in the same way as the 4.8 subscription to the push update emails. There is a different process for 5.0 pro, so I would say the second link (which relates to 4.8 iAVS push updates) is the one that should be used.
The problem being that it doesn't go to the corresponding www2. URL on Send Request, so it falls over with 404. Since this is a success response, presumably you will have been unsubscribed, just that you didn't get the success page displayed.

It redirects wrongly to the confirmation page (because this page hasn't been updated to allow for the move to the www2 domain...
The correct page: http://www2.avast.com/eng/successfull_email_ia.html
however you should have received a confirmation email from:
Majordomo@asw.cz
telling you that your email address has been unsubscribed. It works, I have just tried it (and I use this to k ow when updates are sent out ;))

Yes, it does succeed as even though I wasn't subscribed, I got the email, see image
