Hello, I am new to this forum, so I hope I have this question in the right spot (I'm sorry if it's not). I am a novice when it comes to computers, so bear with me.
I've been using the free Avast 4.8 Home Edition for the past two weeks. My computer uses Windows 2000. It had been working OK since I installed it, but just yesterday, I've been receiving a message. Basically, before, Avast would pop up a blue window telling me that the virus database has been updated. Now it pops up a red window telling me "An error has occurred while attempting to update", with another window telling me there is not enough space on the disk. I tried to clean up some space, but I still get this message. So, I can't update the database.
According to my computer, I have 4.56 MB of free space, and a capacity of 4.00 GB (none of this really means anything to me, I'm afraid).
How much space does Avast need? Is this normal? Is there any other way to clear up space on my computer? If anyone can help with this, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you.
