Start Menu

[Guest]

In XP SP2 I have installed the latest build of AVG antivirus 7.5.
Unfortunately it has also added the AVG icon and the text "viruses" as an
option to the "search" button on "start" menu. I don't like this clutter and
want search to revert to displaying only the "files and folders" option.

Grateful for advice please.
