    AVG Free problem


    I have the little warning flag on the taskbar on the right side that says AVG isn't turned on and asks if I would like to turn it on. I click yes and nothing happens. I still get the warning. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Make sure your running AVG 8.5. I am under Win7 x64 Build 7068 and am not experiencing the issue you two are. See below...

    I found the same message in the Action Centre when i upgraded to 7068, and have disabled the message.
    AVG was obviously working, as it had advised me that i had some keygens it did not like the look of. Don't know why it would think that .

    AVG not working right in W7


    I had to switch to AVG when I went with 7000... I had been using Bitdefender, but it refused to work with 7000.

    One thing I noticed with AVG however is that the tray icon app does not work, it seems to update once in a while, but I know i have virus on one particulur drive and it does not even warn me of those virus like BitDefender does. They are known EXE's that I know are spyware files and I keep them to make sure the virus protection is working right. AVG does not see them.

    Anyone else have issues with AVG, or what do you use on W7?
