It seems that there is a problem with AVG Antivirus FREE version 8.0.136 at the moment. Upon attempting to update your database it will tell you that there is a .bin file missing. After unsucessfully uninstalling and reinstalling and also doing a sytem restore, I have found the solution and repaired it myself. I thought I'd share the info here to save you all from tearing your hair out too.
1) go to http://www.grisoft.com/ww.download-update
2) make a directory on your desktop called AVG
3) download AVI: 270.6.4 to the directory you made called AVG
4) download IAVI: / 1616 to the directory you made called AVG
5) launch AVG
6) select tools -> update from directory
7) select the directory called AVG where you put the downloads
That's it. Should be fixed.

Wow Cindy, aren't you clever working this all out.
I have just told Sean and he said to remember it for when we go to update.
Cool as.

I can't take the credit as I didn't work it out...I just found a post online and tried it.
