New to Ubuntu: read the Ubuntu Manual, it's very informative: http://ubuntu-manual.org/
Click on the "download Button" to download the latest PDF version.
The online help https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/index.html

Tried your suggestion - but it did not work.
I am still denied an update on AVG

OK can you give the output of the command please. Simply saying "It didn't work" doesn't help matters much.

Thanks

OK-I went in to terminal and input sudo avgupdate
and below is what came up in terminal

 cjack@cjack-desktop:~$ sudo avgupdate

usage: avgupdate [OPTIONS] [PATH|LIST]

OPTIONS:

-o, --online online update from Internet

-f, --offline offline update from PATH or LIST

-d, --download download update files

-s, --antispam antispam update from Internet

-p, --priority NUM

NUM represents type of update

2 - priority update

3 - recommended update

4 - optional update

-c, --config FILE

use ohter config file

-t, --daemon-pid FILE

file with AVG daemons group pid

-i, --no-diff ignore binary diff files

-b, --no-backup do not create backup files

-n, --no-progress do not display progress information

-l, --no-log do not create log file

-a, --no-daemons do not restart deamons

-m, --complete only complete updating files

-r, --restore restore previous version

-v, --version display version

-h, --help display this help end exit

PATH : directory with update files

LIST : list of update files separated with space

cjack@cjack-desktop:~$
----------------------------------------
Then went back to the AVG icon, clicked it, clicked on upgrade
and got the following:

Update process failed.
Reason: Sorry, you do not haver permission to execute upgrade.

I am back where I started.
