Cannot Completely Download AVG Free Edition

by TooDawgs - 1/19/08 11:53 PM

I have AVG free edition on my main computer and I'd like to install it on my other PC, but when I try to download it from download.com it starts to download but then stops at about 200 kb and tells me the download is complete, which at 200kb it's not done. I've tried to download it on both PC's with the same results. Any help would be much apprciated.

That seems to violate the EULA.

Your choice.

Why is that?

Why would it violate anything downloading from their website?

This is why:

License Agreement on Use of an AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition

' The GRISOFT Company through this License Agreement grants to you non-exclusive and non-transferable rights thereunder in respect of using a copy of the computer program for a service life thereof, i.e. for a time period throughout which GRISOFT shall maintain and make available an updated version thereof. You may install (download) and use only one copy of the program designated for protection of exclusively one personal computer, notwithstanding as to how many times you download the program and how many times you accept the License Agreement. You must not use the program in a network or on more than one computer. This particular software version is distributed free of charge, therefore, the applicable license is only granted for home use thereof. In case of this free version, the program is not subject to any guarantees, and the user has no right to any technical support whatsoever. '

If you have problems downloading AVG Free Edition,

please try to stop using your download manager and avoid right clicking on files. Also, check your firewall settings, because some mirrors may require that you do not block the HTTP referers.
