I installed the AGV anti virus on my computer. Now I'm getting a message about conflicting Anti

I have the online protection from AT%26T Yahoo! I put the AGV on there to get rid of a virus/trojan. Now when I start up I'm getting a message that I need to remove the AGV to run the AT%26T virus software? I'm not sure what to do. I'm also getting a message that windows can't find C:\windows\system32\proper.exe so I think I still have something on my computer that I need to get off. I guess this is two questions, but I'd appreciate any help on this.

Never run two anti-virus programs at the same time. They will fight each other and cause all kinds of problems. Remove one of them (probably the AVG) at once. Go to the Control Panel and the Add/Remove icon and uninstall AVG.



The "proper.exe" error is probably because that file was deleted, but a reference that calls that file was not. Click on the Start button and select Run. Type in: msconfig



In the windows that appears go to the Start Up tab



Look down the list of items for any reference to proper.exe. When you find it, check that line so that your computer will not attempt to load the file in the future.



Finally, go to http://ccleaner.com and down their free Ccleaner program. Run the registery cleaner in that and it should permanently remove the registry entries that is calling proper.exe.

AGV antivirus is blocking my email?

can anyone help me I recently installed AGV free anti virus but is keep blocking my emails, I did have mcafee but it has expired and is quiet pricy to renew I am on windows xp



AGV antivirus is blocking my email?adware remover



Did you totally un-install mcafee before downloading AVG ?



AGV antivirus is blocking my email?antivirus protection



Now update AVG - you can only run AV on your PC you was lucky you did not get a computer lock up. Report It


hmm weird are you sure it's AVG? maybe it's like your computer firewall or something
Either you can stop the email protection.......



Or use some other AV like nod32.....
Can you describe what you mean by blocking your email? You sent out a test mail to yourself from your computer and you don't receive it?

AGV making my computer run slow?

I downloaded free AGV as everyone said it was great but it made my computer run very slow and I don't understand why - any idea's. I uninstalled it and it's back to normal. I also have Spybot on but all advice seems to be that they should run fine together.



AGV making my computer run slow?adware



Try adding more RAM.



AGV making my computer run slow?antivirus scan



It will be running slow because every time you boot up your computer and log on AVG starts to scan your files for infections....AVG is very good and all you need to do is stop the scan and your computer will run at normal speed,open up the scan progress page and click cancel scan...but you need to let the AVG scan your files every now and then



Spybot is fine to have on your pc with AVG
maybe your machine is riddled with viruses ? avg is picking them up



no firewall also? if you don't.. it will slow down very soon.



if your running xp with less than 1gb of ram, that will be issue



www.filehippo.com



go there , avg + zone alarm + ccleaner



run ccleaner registry fix + cleaner tabs... reboot.. see if u get any improvment



then a FULL scan in safe mode for a start.
AVG should not make your computer run slow unless your doing a scan than try moving the slide scanner to slow scan from automatic (default setting).Also disable the AVG safe search plugin if using firefox or IE7 as it slows the internet browsing down slightly.left click tools%26gt;manage add ons disable AVG safe search.
I agree you need more ram to run it because the new version is not the same as the old one. Also the new free avg dose not offer free support so you may want to get a better anti-virus anyways.
Some anti-virus programs are known to make computers run slow. It's probably because your computer doesn't meet the system requirements. You need more RAM so your computer can run the program smoothly.
Likewise, my husband said install it, I had spybot on but he told me to take it off and install AGV. My laptop has been going slow also.
New AVG Free 8 made my pc run very very slow, that slow I took it off.. I'm running 2GB of RAM.. Glad I moved away from AVG now as it seems it's 'bloatware' to me..
close the program, right click on its icon in the taskbar

Dose AGV Free totaly get rid of a Computer virus?

I have recently descoved that my commy has multiple viruses. I told my frend about it on msn, she asked her brother what software would get rid of it %26 he suggested AGV. I did the scan %26 got all the updates. My virus seems to have gone now but is it deefinatly gon for good?



Dose AGV Free totaly get rid of a Computer virus?agv



I presume you mean AVG Free edition. Yes it is an effective anti-virus program. The fact that it has detected and removed the virus means it has gone for good. However, this does not mean you cannot get infected again - it depends on the source of the infection. Most likely it came through an email or a download over the internet. Make sure you scan emails and downloads before opening them.



You should also run a spyware scan. There are several online ones but the best 2 in my opinion are Ad Aware and Spybot. You can find both at http://www.majorgeeks.com



You should also make sure you are using a firewall other than the standard Windows one. ZoneAlarm is excellent and there is a Free edition - also at majorgeeks.



Dose AGV Free totaly get rid of a Computer virus?antivirus software



Probably...and if AVG doesn't find it, then it is probably gone...



Unless it is some new virus that AVG doesn't scan for...but i doubt that would happen
Most likely they are. If you want to be super safe, check out http://housecall.trendmicro.com/. It's an online virus/spyware scanner. The site will scan your computer thoroughly.
Yes AVG is a good anti virus. i am using for last 3 years.



but keep update.

Free AGV instead of Norton Internet Sercurity ?

Hi, Is it true that AGV security is better than Norton and if I did chose to download it it doesnt come with any viruses etc, once I have downloaded it. And is there a specific site where I have to download it from, as I did type it into search for it and there was a few sites.



Any information you can give me will be great, Thanks.

I have used it on my 6 computers for the last 5 years and it works great!



You need to get rid of Norton completely and can not do it form ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS in the control panel.



The Norton uninstall tool uninstalls ALL Norton 2004/2005/2006/2007 products from your computer. It also uninstalls Norton Ghost 10.0/9.0/2003.

I think you mean AVG and it was recommended to me by an independent PC dealer and repairer. They had done research which showed that AVG had picked up more Cookies then the Norton package. The AVG anti virus Free Edition 7.5 has also been voted all round winner and Editor`s choice for free software in the Microsoft mag this month.

The answer to your question will differ from person to person as they will tell you that the one they use is the best, but that is there personal preference.



From my experience , antivirus and anti spy ware is only as good as its data base, it does not matter, which one it is, if it has not got the virus in its data base then it will not pick up that particular virus,



There are thousands of wild viruses out there; your guess to how many is as good as mine. So I think in picking any antivirus and antispyware, is down to personal choice and which one you are happy with.



I have tried out most of them, paid and free versions and they all have their good points and their bad points. The two that I would not recommend, from my experience with them are Norton and Mcafee.



My experience with Norton was that it slowed my pc down that it was like having a virus installed, and Mcafee would not work for me. I have tried True Sword, did not think much of it gets rid of 3 viruses and then you have to buy it to remove the rest. That did not impress me.



Ones that I would recommend are AVG, ZONE ALARM, + OTHERS
