I just upgraded to V7.x AGV Free (after being forced from 6.x). Guess what..it's removed all of the icons from the desktop,
removed all of the desktop settings, reset all of IE6's settings, changed my home page AND wiped all of the last 2 years
worth of emails from Outlook. In addition, there's no way to return to the old settings and they don't include an uninstall.
Go somewhere else rather than upgrading unless you want to rebuild everything manually.

What OS are you using? I've found XP with SP2 doesn't like the new AVG
unless you get all the latest udgrades for SP2 installed first. 2
friends who use Netzero for their ISP had problems with NZ also until
SP2 was updated...
