Invalid Update Control CTF File – AVG 8

Had a client that had this issue. You simply need to remove the

CTF temp files in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Avg8\update\download

Only remove the 2 files that end with .ctf.

Note: The Application Data folder is hidden by default. Use the Start, Run dialog and press {ENTER} to open the folder.

Windows Vista users: Delete the .CTF files from the following folder:

C:\ProgramData\avg8\update\download
