Recommended Posts

I am running avg 8 under WindowsVista for months. Today I get message

"a .bin file is missing", when trying to update new files.

 

I tried reinstalling and uninstalling program several times. It didnt

work.

 

I tried system restore. It didn't work either.

 

What caused tis problem and what is the solution?

 

I am very pleased with this program and want to retain it.

My SIL had the same problem. Turns out to be AVG is having problems with

their site. Try a few times and it will eventually work.

that is, try updating a few times and it'll eventually download the

updates. The updates are contained in '.bin' files.
