Problems getting updates for AVG?

Firefox is great, maybe its more secure than IE (I dunno tbh) but as I had no problems with IE and need it for work, and its on every machine anyway, I went back to IE. I use Safari (Apple) sometimes when I need to check something out in a different browser.
 

Everything still fine - it seems that what I did may have been a fix, if an unconventional one. Or maybe it was just coincidence - I wish I knew.
