AVG 2015 Free and Update via Proxy

AVG Performance
1

Hello,

As I have a limited Internet connection, I'm trying to use the AVG (version 2015.0.6086) 'Update' function via Proxy.  I've just put my proxy parameters to the 'Advanced Settings' -> 'Update' -> 'Proxy'

Use the proxy -> Manual -> Server: 192.168.1.200 Port:3128

My proxy access is IP based, so I don't need put any 'Auth' parameters.

When I press 'Update Now' bottom I get the error message:

---------------------------------------------------------------

Update failed

We can't reach our update server because the proxy settings fro your antivirus are not properly configured. (Please see attachment)

---------------------------------------------------------------

What do I do wrong?

Thanks in advance.
