Having problems connecting to avast servers..

[polonus]

Hi friends,

At the moment April 11th at 22.50 slowly my connection to the forums returned, also had problems updating avast 6.0
I get an "Error HTTP error (403) at attempt 174.36.159.199:80iavs5x.servers.def

Anybody here knows what is going on?

I guess, I am having a similar problem, now the forum is damn slow

Look for the #Avast hashtag on Twitter. They're having a something of a difficult afternoon it seems.

Hi Chris Thomas,

Yes, I could update now, I could update to program 6.0.1000 and latest virus definitions I have now are 110411-2

As we now all have it, things will normalize for us, I guess,

We've turned the updates off to prevent most of the users access to the wrong definition update.
After uploading the new update, we've turned them back on, so that all of the users (both affected and unaffected) would be getting only the fixed database.

Very good measure. Thanks Kubecj.
