How does exactly the error message sounds? Maybe your firewall is blocking outgoing avast connection... I haven't got this kind of problem...  ???

Are you manual or automatic updating?
Into the firewall settings, the following programs should be allowed to connect:

ashServ.exe (avast! antivirus service)
ashWebSv.exe (avast! Web Scanner)
ashMaiSv.exe (avast! e-Mail Scanner Service)
ashUpdSv.exe (avast! Update Service)
avast.setup (avast! Update executable)
