AV Fails to update on new installation.

Clicking on update brings up the small window middle of screen, but immediately after it goes up one or two bars, I get the message, failed to update the virus signature database. Please check your internet connection and try again later.

Nothing wrong with my internet connection as I am typing this on same laptop.
No proxies either, direct connection.

Is there anywhere I can download the update as a zip or otherwise and install it then?

Thanks.

You can download the latest full database from Where can i download the latest full AV database?.

Let us know if you can update the incremental updates after you installed the latest full database.
