AVG Question

[Uncle Vinnie]

Curious, is it normal for AVG Free:

Using Windows 98se and AVG free, when starting up the pc, AVG scans (dos),
then into Windows, then updates itself- after updating, the pc needs to be
re-booted..

This is daily, is this normal??

Thanks!

Thank you!!

I'll go in and change the settings.. this computer is not all that
important- and since it's at church, there is no need- nor funds- to get a
newer one.. the secretaries have the new machines, all running XP.. this was
a spare for me to use on occasion.. memo's, internet, etc....

I'm with you, btw.. XP has turned solid- I bought a Vista machine for my
daughter, and regret.. even with 4 gig, it crawls...

Oh well!!

thanks again!

Interesting... when I go back in, I'll take a look.. maybe, maybe , it's not

thanks!

Take a look at this FAQ. Usually this problem is to the WAIT4SD file,
it's a common bug in AVG 7.5

Thanks!

I followed all the steps, no wait4sd file, but a few tweaks and it no longer
happens...
