A possible explanation for the long program update delays:
Last year, when the world was on Avast 5, there was a rapid pop-up notice update in the system tray only about 2-3 days AFTER version 5.1.899 was released. There were several problems with this build, which you can read about here:

So it is possible that Avast is being very, very slow with version 6 updates because of the reasons in that thread. They may have postponed version update pop-up notices for let’s say several months or more, just to make absolutely sure, or as close to sure as possible (nothing is totally for sure with any software) that when that system notification goes out, that 95% or more should be ready to receive that update without issues. I think there is good reasoning behind this.
