u dont need to have or enter the avg a/s key, to continue to use the free version. in fact remove the ewido guard from ur startup list now. ensure that ur avg service in set to manual/automatioc (but not disabled), and u shud be able to update. on some occassion it does not, but then try after a couple of hrs agn; this is bcoz the free version is given updates on non-priority (!) basis. if it does not stll update for a day or two. p'raps a reinstall would be in order.
