I'm using avg free edition on both my office and home computers. When I try to update; I'm getting the message ".bin file missing". Please help, if you can.

Its probably a corrupted update (this has happened before)


1 - Start up AVG,click Update Now.
2 - The list of updates is shown in Popup, click on the more information link.A list of updates will be shown.
3 - Click on and save all updates in a file except the last one - (Whatever the name of it is) - because this is causing the problem.
4 - Cancel the update and instead click on Tools > Update from Directory and go to the file where you saved the updates.Install these and AVG should be working properly again.

Found this solution on the Yahoo answers forum from member intc_escapee and it worked for me:

1) go to »AVG Antivirus and Security Software - Download AVG Software Updates
2) make a directory on your desktop called AVG
3) download AVI: 270.6.4
4) download IAVI: / 1616
5) move the dowloaded files to the directory you made called AVG
6) launch AVG
7) select tools -> update from directory
8) select the directory called AVG where you put the downloads

That's it. Should be fixed.
