Hi jimrako :)

I am always curious : Why don't you want to update to Avast 2016 ?

But if you don't want to update, select :

Avast - Settings - Update - Program - Settings - Manual update - OK.

Greetz, Red.

Although you can set avast what to do when there is a update, avast has the right to perform a forced update.

The real question is why do you not want the latest version and have the best protection ?

What makes you think that ?

No matter what, avast needs to be online to give the best protection.
Have a look at the streaming updates you receive every day.
