[Download failed because AVG is a scrub [SOLVED]]

Re: Download failed

Hey, I fixed it!

Apparently certain parts of AVG had failed to uninstall and linger on my PC which blocked access to the downloads...

So yeah, AVG is a dickburger and you should get something else, if it lets you that is... : ::)

[Download failed because AVG is a scrub [SOLVED]]

Hi, I just downloaded the launcher and all was well until I came across this:

I closed and opened the launcher again, but it would be the same, only with a different percentage.

Launcher/pack Version: launcher 0.5.4.4

Operating System: Windows 7 (64 bit)

Version of Java: Java 7 update 2

If anyone knows what this is about, or how to fix it I would appreciate the help!

EDIT: some additional info here, it appears that it happens during the download of the minecraft update and also seems to happen when I run vanilla minecraft and not through the launcher...

EDIT 2: Ok, now it's not happening in vanilla anymore, but I have no idea how that happened...
