Today I found that AVG had crashed on my server and it was causing the scanner to time out most of the time that Declude called it, leading to a buildup of vir directories.  The AVG interface was showing no components installed.  A reboot fixed that problem.

I then ran a manual update and found an optional update which looks like a new version with a bunch of fixes.  The release notes are as follows:


Localisation


AVG Alert Manager
* Improved error logging
* Changes necessary for future event reporting features


AVG Control Center
* Fixed detection of resident shield state with respect to floppy disc scanning
* Proper error description displayed if license number is invalid
* Resident shield plugin allows definition of directories for exclusion
* Fixed AVGCC crash on some Win9x systems when during plugin status detection
* Resident shield plugin now does not signal error state when option for e-mail file on-access scanning is off


AVG User Interface
* Removed duplicate prompt for restart in certain situations
* List of DLL files in bug reports was extended
* Fix of some app crashes when sending bug-report e-mail
* Antialised fonts used independent of the system settings
* Improved error handling
* Fixed processing of /se command-line parameter. This bug caused problems when invoking update from HTTP server with name beginning with "se"


AVG Test Center

Resident scanning engine for Windows NT

E-mail addins
* Outlook plugin can be re-registered (can be stopped)

Resident Shield for Windows NT

* Fixed BSOD problem with active Application Verifier
* Fixed problem with network pipes and SysInternals PSTools programs (and some other systems using pipes)
* Implemented support for local directory exclusion. This functionality is only supported on Windows NT+
* Fixed problem with co-existence with the SODAT security driver
