Update hangs at 60%

Hi
I'm running AVG Free v2015.0.6140 on XP
It tried to perform an update overnight but was hung at 60% this morning. I've retried a couple of times but it hangs at 60% each time.
Any ideas?

Hi Trevor,
Sorry to know that. We request you to delete temporary update files of AVG as per this article ( http://support.avg.com/SupportArticleView?urlname=Update-failed-or-not-working-in-AVG ) to fix this issue. If the issue persists, please try to repair AVG ( http://support.avg.com/SupportArticleView?urlname=How-to-repair-AVG ) and check if it is working fine.
Feel free to contact us if you have any queries with AVG products. Thank you.

Removal of temporary update files had no affect.
I then tried the repair option but clicking on change displays a progress bar for an operation that does not complete, so I never get the repair option.
What now?
