I have used avast for a long time on my personal computers as well as putting it on family members computers. Recently, a friend from work asked me to work on their computer and put a good antivirus on the machine. Naturally, I chose to use avast. Well ever since I downloaded and installed the program I get an error on update. I choose to manually update both the definitions as well as the program and the update times out after 1 second stating "Last encountered error: The package is broken, total time: 1s". Please help. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail. Thanks in advance.
