it’s for some days that we can not update avast either open avast.com website except forum url!
also can not update avast mobile security from my android phone!
as far as i know and based on the word i had with my friends who have avast installed, avast restricted iran ip addresses.
i’m a licensed user and in need of basic supports.
thanks
Is confirmed !
Please answer quickly.
As far as I am aware, Iran has a history of restricting certain internet activity and web access.
It may or may not be some of the problem you are facing.
I see no reason why Avast would be restricted, but then again, if your country is actively involved
in restricting web access, it could be part of the problem.
Is your access overall affected, or is it just inability to access Avast?
All my best!

avast does not block it’s own update servers and do not offer redirection of specific IP. Maybe “someone” in your country is doing that.
Ahh…good old Iran. Where democracy reigns supreme. Don’t you just love open societies? ;D
Hello friends. Sorry my English is poor. Not update my antivirus. Is approximately three to four days. Also I can not get avast site, just enter the site could become a proxy. I’m in love avast free, avast do not want to lose. Address my Internet service provider http://www.tci-khorasan.ir/
Please please help me.
Thank you.
Hi soroush,
Very, very unfortunate situation here. Zulu’d link you provided, and it appears a known service provider (link above) you use is infected with malware!

Very bad.
If it’s the same as with AVG, then it’s intentional (and I guess most other AV companies will follow suit sooner or later), and you are out of luck. If you have a paid version, ask for a refund.

excuse me dude, but it’s none of your business.
Answered before... Seems a problem on your country and not with avast!...hi, you're right.but i can't understand why they chose Avast as victim :o . they surprised me!
Omid, does that mean you can connect and update in Iran?
I can ping update servers, either via URL or IP, but browser will return time-out when opening avast.com.
Hi Omid Farhang,
Using a Bitty browser might work: http://www.bitty.com/manual/?contenttype=rssfeed&contentvalue=http%3A%2F%2Ffeeds.feedburner.com%2Fboingboing%2FiBag
