I gave up -paid- AVG after a virus got through and ate my hard drive.

Try Microsoft Security Essentials. Free, good, updated daily.

You want the one at the bottom of the list. You run Revo, and wait for

Works here. Try http://centerfiresystems.com/

You may need to change DNS servers if your ISP blocks it for some
reason. Try 4.2.2.2 and 8.8.8.8


Karl, I use XP, Firefox, and AVG and I just went to
centerfiresystems.com and had no problems. Check your settings in AVG.

I first found it worked with a proxy server, proving it was a problem
on this end. Went though a very long list of items and accidently
stumbed over turning AVG off fixed it. So I now have a new microsoft
virus software running.

For me, working on puter problems is stumbling around in the dark.
just glad its over.

Thanks Karl. I've had trouble with AVG on one of my machines too. I
may need to reinstall it. It is supposed to scan at midnight but
instead waits until I start to use the computer, even though the
computer is always on. And when it scans it really slows the machine
up. GRRR.

I've removed AVG from over a dozen computers in the last couple
months. It wouldn't update without uninstalling it, and reinstalling,
then doing it again a few days later for the next update.

Delete AVG and then reinstall the latest version.

I run AVG and I have no problems getting to centerfire

Use Revo Uninstaller to remove AVG, or there will still be thousands
of entries in the registry. There are four levels it can operate at.
You want the one at the bottom of the list. You run Revo, and wait for
it to load a list of all programs. Then right click on AVG and select

Thanks!! Works a treat cleaning up some bits and pieces I downloaded
and could never quite get free of!

Many thanks!!!

Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been using Advanced System Care 5 for removing tidbits from my
registry files. Any more reviews on that prog, guys?
Freeware or Pro, which is $13 on sale. Annual update.

I've used Revo (free) for about two years, and it's been a great
reapir & maintenence tool. It has saved me from reinstalling the OS on
a lot of computers. I've never tried Advanced System Care 5.

FWIW, the free version did not see my AVG. I had to download the 30
day trial of the paid version.

But I'm sure if I had just used windoze uninstall a ton crap would
have been left behind

Definately. AVG adds over a thousand registry entries, and doesn't
unistall them all. AOL was worse. Especially on computers with a lot
of versions installed.
