TY :)
There was one for F-prot yesterday 2003-08-18, for anyone that's
interested.

Another avg virus definitions update is available today.
Latest virus database id is now : 309.
 
And for those who have nothing better to do than stare at the
"downloading update" screen for half an hour while it does nothing, get
your updates now, before they sell out. AVG is really beginning to piss
me off with their non-downloadable updates. I am still on 307, and
after waiting for half an hour for something toj happen, I get a message
saying that my system is up to date. Or, sometimes I am lucky and get
told that I am not connected to the internet. (ADSL, go figure)

Go and get the download file and place it the AVG UPDATE directory.

Huh? I just reduce it and let it do it's thing while I
continue reading, writing or visiting. No problem here. It's
been on my computer for three years doing the automatic
updates (scheduled). Sometimes I update at times other than
those scheduled (2:00 A.M. EST). I have found the server
there to be very busy sometimes, but most of the time, no
problem while it's downloading, I do other things... like read
this ng msgs. <g>

For the past two days I've been unable to get the download even to
start at the website (never gets to the download box stage). The
automatic updater has been nonfunctional since the start of the
msblaster crisis.

So where are you located? Have you received it yet? I always update
from within the program and have never experienced a problem even
during the latest 'wormy days'.

I'm in North America. It was behaving as stated yesterday and this
morning, but at the moment I'm able to download from the website. No
way to know if the updater might work as well since I wasn't about to
stop the download to find out.

Thanks for asking.
