Rod, Are you using the latest free Rescue CD install file from this link (http://www.avg.com/ww-en/download.prd-arl)?. What are you currently showing for your vdb ref no… Is it anything like 8413?.

The link tells how to update the DB using the Internet while running the AVG Rescue Disk.  This works fine but it doesn't work over a wifi link, which is what I normally use.  For convenience, I am hoping to find a way to download the latest virus DB files while under Windows and use the "Offline Update from directory" option while running the AVG Rescue Disk so I don't have to connect an Ethernet cable from my PC to my router.  When I click AVG Rescue CD guide (http://www.avg.com/226386) the virus DB files are all for AVG 2015 and the AVG Rescue Disk rejects them.  (It appears to me that the AVG Rescue Disk is based on AVG 2013 and perhaps that is why the 2015 files don't work with the AVG Rescue Disk?)  So, can you tell me the exact web page url where I can get the latest DB for AVG Rescue Disk?

Thanks for your help.
