new free avg

AVG, will not support their old version any more, To downlaod the new version go hereNEW FREE AVG

The new version has a flaw with windows XP.., if I install it my computer will not boot.., I am antivirusless at the moment.., I have been scanning with online ones for the moment.., so problems yet

Works for me 3 XP fully patched systems and no problems so far all upgraded from version 6 with no errors.
Can you specify the problems your having?

when I first install it, it asks for a restart
on the boot up the computer hangs at the blue bar..
I have to hit the restart button and choose either safe mode or last good configuration to get it to start it up

If I hit last good configuration the resident sheild will not load...

I am thinking about trying avast..., might do that tonight...

\Perhaps a post in the AVG/Grisoft forums will elicite a suitable solution.

I guess i should've stated that I have been there and have tried multible solutions in which people have posted but to no avail...

Try Avast! or AntiVir I believe those have freeware editions

From the Grisoft AVG7-FREE forums, I see there are many glitches yet to be sorted out prior to D-Day when AVG6-FREE will no longer be supported (Dec 31, 04). I'm just glad I didn't rush to uninstall my existing AVG6 and then see how the forum rates it's functioning later in the month.
If I didn't still have my AVG6-FREE, I'd be enquiring around as to where I could get one until the AVG7 version is tweaked...then again, I think I'd be SOL.
Thing is, many folks are like me, I suspect, and have been happy with using AVG for years so don't want to have to install something else in the mean time...although there are, of course, reliable alternatives such as the ones 104456 linked to above.

newme...Sorry about that. Pull an all nighter and got AVG-6 confused with ZoneAlarm. 2.6.
Again my apologies.

Good luck

I use the same, carson:
firewall - ZA 2.6
a-virus - AVG-FREE
