UBCD 5.0.3 - Contained Avira hangs when pressing "Update"

As of UBCD 5.0.3 the contained Avira AntiVir Rescue System is very buggy.

As soon as you press the "Update" tab, the program gets unresponsive, only a cold reboot helps.
Without the update function, a static anti-malware system is practically useless, as the virus definitions are outdated.

Note: The affected computer did not have a wired internet connection. Maybe that was the cause?

However, I downloaded the newest Avira AntiVir Rescue System from their website, for me this was v3.7.16-20110406132449, and this version worked fine! Was always responsive and also the update function worked, provided a wired internet connection existed.

Avira Antivirus will probably be removed from UBCD:
