Yes I have got AVG 8 free version, and did not realise it was updating, probably taken about 15-20 minutes to download if it started when I turned on. |

Have just updated and now it is not working, says some of the components are not working, to update, click on update and will not download anything! so seems like I am the same as you. |

Before you install the new FREE version 8 you have to uninstall the old version 7.5. |

I agree with Carol, it can leave some bits behind and it better to manually uninstall first. |

Just had two goes at downloading the large update. The second time it got nearly all the way through then the connection failed again. |

Maz, the paid version has more bells and whistles to it, but as just an anti virus, the free version is good enough. |

Now have the red exclamation mark and a box that says 'update result missing. Nit surprising when the update failed is it?? think I will ignore it and assume it is them. |
