Hello, my avg icon has an x throw it, and says that the virus definitions are outdated. When I try to update it, nothing happens. When I tried to repair avg it says that the program files are missing, more accurately the "icarus.exe" file, so I can't update the application.
Any help would be appreciated.
Ryan
