Title: Trying to update Avast 6 - Hangup
Post by: luvnlife520 on February 27, 2012, 02:49:30 PM
1.  I started yesterday evening to update Avast 6.  When I went to bed it appeared to be about 1/3 of the way finished of step 1 of 3.  I checked it this morning and it is still at the point it was last night.  My system is a HP Pavillon 1619h.  Any suggestions?

2.  I updated Avast yesterday on my laptop.  It took awhile, but finished.  On restarting my computer this morning, it shows Avast 7, which doesn't make sense to me. :-\  I purchased and installed Avast 6 for each of my computers on the same day.  Why the difference?  Thanks

Qn 1: seems like a numer of ppl are having update problems including me (guess is server side problem as the day before my manual update still works)

Qn 2: the new version of Avast! is v7. if u accepted the programme update notification(default setting) /invoked the manual programme update, yup, u will get the Avast! 7 version upgraded over ur previous version
