Not to really bash AVG or anything but I have a better idea, uninstall AVG and go to something better. Myself I use Microsoft Security Essentials and it has proven very good, a lot less bloat than the last time I used AVG,

Hi All
Recently updated to AVG free 2011 and it seemed to work fine for a couple of days. I received a message on my laptop that I needed to reboot to complete the update, so I did, and I did and I did. AVG is still requesting that I reboot the computer.
