Is a better link.

Standby for overload of Grisoft's sites, the download is nearly 10
MB.

It cannot scan completely minimized. Luckily I have dual monitors.

Correct. It was difficult to connect and there were several download pauses,
but I finally got it all (I think). There's always some doubt unless they
tell the exact number of bytes in the download, at least, or preferably a
MD5 checksum.

I don't use AVG Free Edition anymore, but from the instruction manuals
I read at grisoft.com it appears version 7 has more functionality. Just
wondering if it slows down computers a bit more now. Are there more AVG
items listed in MSCONFIG now?

The new AVG 7 is very much like the professional version 7 that I paid
for for work. In fact, it has one better feature where you can have
it automatically check the internet for updates when you use manual
update and you do not have to choose "internet" each time.

It is very nice for free.

Two things are listed on my system as AVG services:
1) AVG7 Alert Manager Server
2) AVG7 Update Service

I looked on the AVG free forum and there is an issue related to Roxio
software. I think some people solved it by disabling or removing the Roxio
software.

Your symptoms weren't matched exactly, but some other people are having
similar problems. The best general suggestion seems to be to press F8 when
you restart your computer to get to the long list of startup options. Then
choose the one which restores your last good registry. I don't remember the
details offhand, but that's probably the way. Maybe someone else can fill in
the details.

Another possibly useful suggestion, when/if you are able to access your
registry, and if you still have problems: Set the following value to repair
the AVG installation using AVG setup, then reboot:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\cdudf_xp]
"Start"=dword:00000004
