I have a free version of AVG. When I go into the program it says it is up to date, but when I get E mail, the virus message at the bottom says internal virus data base is out of date. It is on October 16 now. Any suggestions to update this so it shows correctly? I did the update manager deal by hitting the key U and it says the program is updated. Any suggestions? AVG is showing up in the system tray.

try doing the update deal a couple of times and wait and see if anything happens. I have had that problem a couple of times.

I found out it says invalid CTF file. What does that mean?

can't do that by myself, so am waiting for sighted help. I think that's what he will do reinstall it, but do wonder if I should switch to another antivirus program. I have comcast and Macafee is free for me. Anybody out there use macafee with jaws and how well or how badly does it work? I can't keep having a glitch like this because I have no assistance here to immediately fix the problem.
