ESET NOD32 is better, and you can get it for 20 bucks (half what
ESET charges) from www.purplus.com.
They have daily updates, if not several daily.
You are using an out of date browser. It may not display this or other websites correctly.
You should upgrade or use an alternative browser.

AVG is not updating. Ever since July 4th it says the virus and spyware
databases are out of date - last updated July 4.
I open it up, click update, it takes about a second and tells me to
reboot. I do, and it still barks saying it needs to update. I can si
there all day and let it reboot - it will not update!
Uninstall and reinstall AVG?
If I have to reinstall, how can I do so and keep that webpage scanner
out? It slows down webpage loading severely.

Justin,
Do the reinstall. I am using it on 7 XP machines with NO problems
what-so-ever.
Don't worry about the webpage scanner. Turn it off in the IE or Firefox
add-ins. You won't be bothered with it slowing things down after you do.

If you download the latest executable from the avg website, and choose
custom install, you get to stop completely all that webpage/toolvar scanner
shit from installing. Makes it much better.

the problem with not choosing to install the web thing is it keeps
barking at me to either install it or screw with it.

What I meant was to let the webpage scanner install when you install AVG.
Then go to Add-ons in IE7 or Firefox and disable it. That way you don't get
any nags and you don't have the problem with the slowness.

Or, as i said, download a newer install file from avg website, and choose
