when i go to update the program and avs it gives me this message

Information about current update:
Last encountered error: Can’t select any server for downloading (from 0).

Need help pleeeeease!

Basically, check:

  1. If your subscription allows the update right now (i.e., if it is not expired).

  2. If your firewall settings and allow avast.setup to connect. If you’re not sure, just turn off your firewall (to be sure the update failure is not due to it). Maybe you should ‘remove’ avast.setup entry, try to update, receiving a new alert from the firewall, allowing it and checking it to remember.

  3. Check your proxy settings into avast!:
    Left click the avast icon > Settings
    Update (Basic) > Details > Proxy

    Make sure your browser is not set to “Work Offline” (this option is generally in the File menu). If it doesn’t help, try switching the proxy settings from “Auto-detect” to “No proxy” (I’m assuming you’re not connecting to the Internet via proxy). :wink:

Concerning point 2:

And don’t do as I did the first time I located this problem:
I tried to locate avast.setup and couldn’t find it. That’s
because it gets generated during the process of updating
and then disappears again. ;D
