  • AVG is playing up.

    I think someone else had this prob recently on here. My AVG antivirus is showing as grayed out in the system tray and i get the message that it cannot connect for status. I keep trying to open it to click the av on but its not having any of it.

    Ive never had a problem with this before but Ive noticed that the site has been hanging when its been doing its daily update. Hmm. I think I shall try to download it all again and see if that fixes it.

      Have you paid for it or is it a free download?

          It does depend how long you've had it.

              I had mine about 3 years and it started playing up.

              I would suggest that you should go to the AVG site and download the exe file again. De-install the one you have and then re-install it from the new exe file.

                And remeber to disconnect from the internet after saving the new one to desktop and BEFORE you uninstall the old. Do not reconnect until after you have the new installed.

                  Ive had mine years and this is the first time its done this. Like you say Val, it keeps saying its not active yet when I try to update manually it says its up to date. Ive just downloaded again.

                    Val it will not automatically update if the computer is on standby, in hibernation or switched off at the time the update check is scheduled for.

                            Yep absolutely, sorry when I give instructions I make too many assumptions. I shouldn't do that.
