What download manager are you using? Looks like there's something wrong with your connection. Try downloading from these servers:

hahahahahahahahah nice joke
ok now to the problem
well i too have Avast but no problems here
well i tried searching but there is no direct dloading for thier definations
all i can say is next time while updating leave the computer IDLE i,e let the AV update dont acsess
the net while it updates
see if this trick works

Actually there is a place you can download the updates try this page:

*www.avast.com/eng/update_avast_4_vps.html

*files.avast.com/iavs4pro/vpsupd.exe

The latest iAVS update was published on: 18.2.2005, version: 0507-4

No reinstallation of the program is needed for virus database updates!

Gotcha! Goof acknowledged. But then I've never used Avast so I guess I misunderstood. One thought though, dont all these update programs have a way of configuring how it accesses the Internet for updates. I know McAfee, NAV and Trend Micro does. Could that be a problem?
