Ok, I think I know what's going on. I fired up  a VM I have, running xp x64 + Avast 8. Avast updated normally to v 140212. Then I installed avast 9 over avast 8 and rebooted. After rebooting, avast updated to v 140409-3 instead of today's update.
So, it seems that for some reason, avast won't update to anything newer than 140409-3, that's why it doesn't update if you have a newer version (installed via the offline updater, for example).
Of course, trying to update gives the same result: It's already up to date (which it isn't!)
THIS IS DEFINITELY an issue with the v9 update servers.

There's  something else wrong. I'm seeing the same behavior on my laptop. avast is updated to 140409-3, if I click update, it tells me that it's up to date.
No way i have the exact same problem on two diff. computers, its's obviously an external issue, servers or something.

My last update.  If it's a server problem I wonder why it hasn't been fixed?

Could you update to .2018 and see if that resets the server data
