AVG Firewall

I have found updating and installing some software for Eclipse difficult if a person is using the AVG firewall and virus protector. Disabling the firewall doesn't help, but if you reboot in safe mode with networking, and start Eclipse then it will update and install new software. Hope this helps someone. LA

You just need to set the outgoing rules in firewall not to block the programs related to eclipse. Safe mode with networking isnt "safe" it allows all connections.

Guess I'm not sure/or not doing it correct. LA
