Re: Avg says .bin missing when updating

Yes, same issue.
Apparently there is an issue with one of the update files, specifically "u7iavi1616oo.bin", as such AVG has pulled the file from public download. AVG is aware of the issue and is working to correct the matter.

Reinstalling will not resolve the issue - just wait a day and try updated tomorrow.

LadyL, you are missing about one months worth of updates. The full install (Windows: 8.0.138) was put up back on July 4th.

Re: Avg says .bin missing when updating

I know that I'm 1 month behind...that's because I had uninstalled my updated - to the last updated defs - but since the .bin was screwedup (AVG's fault, not mine) when I downloaded the software again, naturally I would only have the defs that came with the software.
I will try the fix that is posted further down.

Re: Avg says .bin missing when updating

Seems like everyone using AVG is affected. I installed Avast! Antivirus and ran a scan which uncovered a corrupt .dll file. (avgcorex.dll) The path was: "Documents & Settings\all users\application data\avg8\update\backup\avgcorex.dll". Avast listed it as a Trojan! My O/S is Win 2K-Pro.

Let me know if you find the same, and if so please post for others.

Re: Avg says .bin missing when updating

Sorry, but have no idea what you are talking about. I have no idea where Documents and Settings, etc. are located at. I'm using Vista Basic. Can't find anything like that.
