Walker,
I believe that the A team will be home for the holiday.
Any updates that are posted to the server will be available for Avast users. There is more than one server that carries the updates, so even if one shuts down, Avast will search for another. Not to worry.
I would imagine that they would go home early the day before Christmas and then return on Friday.
This Forum is the mainstay of Avast support. I will try to be around.....(between dinner courses. hahaha) for emergencies, but I can't think of any right now!
General Holiday Advice: If the computer gives you trouble, shut it off till Friday!

PS: To the A Team:If you didn't have off before, then I grant you a holiday Et Gratus en Techieus! You deserve it.
