Tony, I recall you saying you were having problems with AVG geting the auto updates all the time? Does it still behave that way for you?
I set mine to check for updates every morning after 6AM central time and it seems to get a new update almost daily. When I had it set for earlier than that, it would not always get the updates. I don't know if there was/is a big server load in the middle of the night or soemthing totally unrelated, but now it consistently gets updates. It could also be that I added the other servers to the config file for update addresses...
