Clicked on the link and it starts to download but then just disappears. Are the servers overloaded maybe?
Absolutly no problem for me.

What link did you use, you also don’t say what avast you are using, free/pro/AIS ?
This assumes you are using the free version [url=http://files.avast.com/iavs5x
The download shouldn’t just disappear, generally I would expect an error to be displayed.
How are you downloading, right click on a link and save as/save file as or are you using a download manager , etc. ?
Have you not tried a program update from the avastUI, Maintenance section ?
I used the link from the forum. When I go to save the file in a folder on my computer it just keeps disappearing. I’m using v.6.0.1289 free but something is wrong here.
Why not try an update from within the program, avastUI, Maintenance, Program Update.
I want to do a clean install. When I double click on the incompleted file that I tried to download it shows a 1006 (000003EE) error.
What is your broadband connection like as the download is about 71.3MB and I have just downloaded it whilst posting this. I have a fast connection, if you haven’t I would suggest you use a download manager, so that you can resume any failed connection.
I downloaded it from softpedia and it downloaded fine so there is something wrong with the avast servers.
As I said I downloaded it from the avast servers, whilst making my last post, so I don’t know why you had a problem.
The main thing is have you been able to do a clean install now ?
Perhaps, you could try downloading the setup from here: http://www.avast.com/en-us/download-software
If English is not the language you use for Avast AV, you may need to change it before downloading the file. Just to be sure, select your language from the upper-right menu (the one with the flag).
[Edit]
Ops, it seems the OP was able to download the setup - sorry, I misread his last post.
