I am in a condition where I need to upgrade Avast 4.1 on a system not connected to the Internet.
I downloaded the 1.5 Mb update file, but then when I ran it, it told me that it was only for Avast 4.0!
Mind you, I checked NOW and that 1.5Mb update file is no longer listed in the Update page.
Ok, iIdownloaded the right file yesterday, ran it on the box and got the message “VPS database is already up to date”.
But again, when I start Avast!, it says that the current version of virus database is 11/06/04.
(See attachment).
This is odd ??? It could be explained if the vps you downloaded is the same or older as the one installed, but I doubt that very much. I do however recall seeing some threads on this forum where people had the same issue. See if you can find them, they may help. If I get a bright moment, I sure will let you know.
