AVG Driver Updater

Hi,  I am receiving notifications from AVG Internet Security that I have outdated drivers. I also have a subscription for AVG Driver Updater which shows me that all my drivers are up to date.  When I check what driver versions are showing on Internet Security and compare them to the current versions showing on Driver Updater, Internet Security versions are definitely more current however even if I do a scan on my PC, the Driver Updater still says all my drivers are up to date even though Internet Security says they aren't which is odd considering that the Driver Updater's sole purpose is to keep my drivers up to date.  Is anyone else having this issue?
