Hi
I did have a search of this forum and noticed a few people have had probelms with AVG I'm just wondering if anyone has had this and can advise me. Will be able to check in again later today so would be grateful for nay suggestions you have. I am running Windows 98 on my Acer travelmate laptop. I recently took up Talk Talk's broadband offer and tried to install their 3 month trial of antivirus and firewall softwear from the CD which installs all the connection software. However I couldn't install it, no error message just nothing happens. I went online and downloaded a 1 month trial of Panda firewall and AV which a friend recommended to me now when I tried to install it I got a message saying it couldn't install becasue of a conflicting programme - AVG. Now I uninstalled AVG (I was using the free version) over a month ago becasue I was having problems each time I downloaded the updates and only have adaware at the moment. I can't find any AVG files ( I did a search using 'find' from the start-up menu and also looked in my programmes folder). I am now concerned I won't be able to use broadband unless I can install some kind of AV software but am relucatnat to purchase something in case I can't install it. Has anyone else had this problem with AVG - have I missed something? Many thanks in advance.
