Hi

I thought I would share an experience with installing AVG free on
Vista.

Before we installed AVG free, we installed ZoneAlarm. The problem was
that I did not turn off the Widows firewall. This caused a bluscreen
when I later installed AVG free.

To solve this we needed to uninstall ZoneAlarm, turn off the Windows
firewall, install ZoneAlarm and then install AVG free.

Thanks for sharing.

Tell me; does ZA (sometimes) tell you off when AVG updates and temporarily
disables the firewall to do so, as it does with the XP firewall?
