i seem to remember seeing that once, but i don't remember needing to do anything special to fix it

have you rebooted? :D

i haven't been using Windows for a couple months and don't have AVG installed anywhere..

The AVG forum says this happens when the update servers are busy, try again later.

AVG's been updating nearly daily of late. A couple of new viruses out there now that are tagging gullible people.

Along with Update failed I get "The connection To server Failed " notice
Should I Uninstall then reinstall it ?

Have some OVJ and wait it out, I think AVG is just overloaded so you should do the same. :D

that happens to me a lot and usually it fixes itself. this is different.

i'll wait a day or so (it's been a couple days)...and then maybe uninstall/reinstall
