just got this off grisoft website:

Grisoft announces the end of support for AVG version 6.0 effective on
December 31, 2004 for technical reasons. This version has been available
since 1999. Its structure does not allow for further improvements planned
for version 7 nor improvements in detection techniques expected to come in
the future.
End of support means we will no longer provide program updates or Virus
Database updates for version 6.0 and therefore, within days, this version
will not protect against new virus outbreaks!

Current AVG 6.0 users should upgrade to AVG 7.0. Information on upgrading to
version 7.0 can be found at http://www.grisoft.com/us/us_upgrade.php.
