I’m coming to you with a problem with the automatic update of my avast (5.0.462 - 100314.0).
I’ve recently change my provider to connect to the web and since that day, Avast does’nt update anymore.
I’ve tried to do it manually, but I have always the same message “Initializing”.
My problem is now resolved. I’ve the same configuration that you showned.
My problem was in the LAN Settings of windows XP in which I’ve forgotten to check to automatically detect the parameters.
