" A .bin file is missing" and thus can no longer continue updating the software. what does it mean and what should i do?

Download and reinstall the avg program. Most likely a file was being updated and it messed up so its corrupted now. So.. if you reinstall it, it should be fine.

I had this problem too. Googled it and this came up and worked for me:

I came across the same problem but got it sorted.

1 - Start up AVG,click Update Now.

2 - The list of updates is shown in Popup, click on the more information link.A list of updates will be shown.

3 - Click on and save all updates in a file except the last one - http://downloadfree.avg.com/update/u7iavi1616oo.bin - because this is causing the problem.

4 - Cancel the update and instead click on Tools > Update from Directory and go to the file where you saved the updates.Install these and AVG should be working properly again.

^ Yes, after you've installed the updates you can delete them off of your computer.
