bvw Posted August 7, 2004 Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 Have a play about I guess Shirl......as you don't use AVG I doubt you'll break anything...... he says hopefully :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted August 7, 2004 Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 By default Windows does not have an association with a bin file so associate it with nothing.Control Panel, Folder Options, File Types, Find bin and delte that sucker!!EDIT: Oh BIN file for AVG update should still work.Did you somehow associate a bin file with AVG by any chance?
