    Just updated mine with no problems. Have you checked firewall settings just incase it's being blocked?

    Try downloading and reinstalling AVG.

    Another quick thought, does your friend have the latest version of AVG 7.5? As i understand it AVG are discontinuing support for the previous version so this may be causing the problem.

    Hope this helps.
