Default Avira Strange

My Avira keeps offering to update updating every few hours it seems. yet on the scheduler, it has 'every 24 hrs'?

On my other PC with XP it doesnt do this.

Why?

Hello Ding Dong

Your post seems to indicate 2 PCs - but only mention the OS on one. The "working" PC as you mention is XP. What is the other?

Have you tried an uninstall/reinstall of the software on the problem PC?

No just one pc with WM on it......the other one is xp and old.

I changed the information to a single time (10am) rather than "days" but it still does it.

reinstall maybe or go back to AVG's latest - heard its good.

I've been using AVG for several years and have been quite happy with the product.
