AVG 8.0 FW - A.Bin file missing error

For those of us using AVG 8.0 freeware:

If, like me, did you jump on to your PC this morning and your AVG icon in your desktop tray is covered with an explanantion mark and when you open the AVG User Interface, you are advised, under Update Manager that A.bin is missing?

A couple of quick googles on a few help sites suggests this is a Grisoft(AVG) issue and we need to wait until it's fixed.

Yeah, thought about that myself, but a few have reported they did that and it didn't fix the problem Synth.

It's now fixed - if you do an update, the corrupted file will be replaced. :)
