OK, here I go again! (1) I believe it was a grogram. I use a firewall sygate adware, sypwareblaster,ccleaner.
When there is a program update, the firewall (Sygate) will detect that the avast components have been changed and will ask you again for permition to connect.
If not, you can delete the avast entries into the Sygate programs settings and add the again using avast (booting, updating, etc.).
It only happens when I log on.
So change (or add)
AlwaysConnectedWaitSeconds value into the
[InetWD] section of avast4.ini file.
You could set the number of seconds to wait before attempting to update. The default is 30 but it may not be enough in some DSL systems. In this case, you can try increasing this e.g. to 60 (1 minute). That should be enough. More details here:

So, seems it's not a Sygate problem...
I do not understand about overwrite either?
I was telling you to overwrite the servers.def file. You can download servers.def from here:
http://download1.avast.com/iavs4x/servers.defSave it to C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4\setup folder overwritting the 'old' file there. Start the update again.
