Confirmed, manual update check - in my case there was no update 'Already up to date.'

Effectively no update done, but the main UI home page flip flopped back and forth through Green to RED (Unprotected) in my case, to Yellow and eventually back to Green. This was with the main UI open and the Update window.

I tried it again going from the tray icon - about avast - from the window  that opened I clicked the Update tab and update VPS. Since I didn't have the main UI window open no cycling through the colours, but the Virus Definitions section had some errors, Connection not established and no date of Last update received.

A short time later these fields returned to normal.

EDIT: Typo

Thanks for the confirmation Dave. Guess, we can call it a bug then.

We won't know until others actually try a manual update, I don't think many do unless they feel auto update isn't doing its job (but we're two for two right now).

@Asyn and @DavidR

Guys, I tested this build on Windows Xp in virtualbox, and I can confirm this is a bug. On Windows 7 it's working fine.

Nor is it resolved in 2229, which as an XP SP3 user I shouldn't even have.

Strange thing the Manual Program update in 2228 or 2229 experienced this problem.
