Solve : Antivirus issue?

Answer»

I've installed AVG antivirus for Linux on my machine. I took Rob's advice and decided to have some on...as an extra precaution. Anyway, it installed and runs a scan fine. My problem is that in the GUI interface AVG won't let me run an update. I checked the properties on the folder and it is owned by root.

Do i need to run an update as sudo from terminal to get it to update? What might the syntax be?

Thanks

Alan <>< Oh my goodness, no idea! I didn't even know AVG did a Linux antivirus. You CERTAINLY wouldn't expect to be able to update the virus DB without ADMIN privileges.

Aha. A quick search reveals >this page<. Your ANSWER is in there.Thanks Rob

You're my HERO...sorta
