The current AVG 8.0 Download (from the public website) is build 125 (this IS
the SP1 download).
For the general public SP1 doesnt exist - it will be just a standard update
to their regular AVG 8.0. The SP1 is an internal name for the build that we
tested for AVG
I downloaded build 125 yesterday and used it to uninstall the
Link Scanner components. FF 3 does a good job of picking up
forged sites, and McAfee Site Advisor does the same job Safe
Search does with less overhead.
AVG forced the update to build 130 on today's update. Here's the
release notes.

Update Summary:
AVG 8.0 VERSION DESCRIPTION
===========================
Product: AVG Internet Security
Version: 8.0 (build 130)
FIXES & IMPROVEMENTS IN SP1
===========================
- Remake of internal communication to eliminate undesired program
status appearance (hibernation, sleep mode, cold restart, ...).
- Display of the system tray icon representing running scan (that
can be paused or stopped from the context menu).
- Added option to ignore the status of a component via context
menu in the AVG main interface: the system tray icon then reports
OK status even if a component is in error status.
- New tab added for the rootkit findings in the scan results
overview.
- System restore point is created before launching a program
update.
- Added new option verifying the ADMIN Server connection in the
program's advanced settings.
- Improved EML file processing including scanning of user
mailboxes.
- RAM requirements optimization.
- Improved statistics of detected objects in Email Scanner and
resident Shield.
- New design of the system tray pop-up window, and more
information provided.
- To eliminate AVG collisions with OS, only minimum drivers are
installed in safe mode; then it is possible to launch on-demand
scanning from the command line only, and a new GUI dialog has
been added to ease the scan configuration.
- Added option of restoring a file from the Virus Vault to the
original folder even if the folder has been removed.
- Added option of deleting the Resident Shield and Email Scanner
history.
- Improved stability and design of GUI.
- Improved GUI accessibility (using keyboard).
- Fixed problem of GUI compatibility with some screereaders, e.g.
