your budget g.

I have AVG Antivirus and Anti-spyware program recently and but I have an icon
that always pops up and says my firewall isnt working and the computer isnt
protected and when I go check on the little icon it tells me what to do and I
try to do it and it doesnt work and also says it outdated - how can something
new be outdated. And I cant upgrade my antivirus programs because it wont let
me. And ideas?

AVG puts out updated virus definitions almost everyday, you need to let it
update online.
