=====================================
You need antivirus then here is what I recommend - using the same method as above to install a.
Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.
Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven very reliable and compatible.
Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except away from Standard, Web and network is working.
Prevx - Home - free
Windows Firewall
Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)
Protected IE - mode
IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)
I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
(Sometimes you have to temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom right of IE)
Avast 5.0 seems to be to use few additional resources for other (always leave Standard, Web and network shields
race) so that you can disable those not necessary but there seems to be little reason to do so. Double
Click the Orange icon to get to the settings.
Avast 4.8 - stop home - free - all shields you do no need except leave Standard, Web and network running.
(Double-click the blue icon - details look OK. - upper left Shields - those that you do not cancel).
http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html
Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/
Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast
Prevx - Home - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD free protection, working with other security programs. It comes
a scan only, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something to come back here or use Google to see how to remove.

http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp <-->-->
PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp
Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever suspect malware, and that would be unusual with
Avast and Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie and then run it as
a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.
I hope this helps.

You have disabled AVG before you run the removal tool?
You will also be able to stop AVG by disabling startup items.
To identify what loads when you start using Autoruns (freeware from Microsoft).
http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902With Autoruns, you can deselect an item which disables startup, or you can click with the right button on an item, then remove it. If you clear the check box that you can check back for re - activate the element. It is an approach much safer than editing the registry and better than using msconfig.
Another useful feature of the program is that you can click with the right button on an item and select search online to get information about the selected item.

I installed a trial of avg vertion, seeing that I have only 22 days of free trial, I changed my mind. In addition, my computer began to close and restart continuously, so I used system restore to go back to before the installation of this particular avg, but I used avg free 9.o. After the system restore, my computer is more closed suddengly & restart again but now I want to uninstall avg free 9.0 because it's showing out n the Security Center and I can't turn it back on t. In the judgment, it does not work so I decided to take down a new free version of avg, but to try to install it, I get this error message - @FinalDlg_default_logfile_name

Since I installed Avg free 2012 I was forced to put up with Avg isearch appearing on every page that I didn't have before, that I hate it when something is imposed on me and I think that it is completely unfair that I have not the last word if I want it or not. I would appreciate your team could be a solution to this problem that I can not find one myself. I tried to delete this several ways in which none worked. I disabled the addon, uninstalled Avg free 2012, crossed the linkscanner Avg settings and disabled people and all its parameters and I'm still stuck with it. I'd asked Avg to help, but you can get help from avg if you have a paid version of Avg and besides Avg has probably in some way. I type of youtube and the window address bar returned: http://isearch.avg.com/search?cid=%7Bab7f8f1d-568b-443e-90b9-c7517ba5f649%7D & mid = 26d73d20be7247d1b7acd16f6b948aa4-56940bc882bc5afd7a8a09149449efc60dfa3b03 & ds = AVG & lang = in & v = 8.0.0.34 & pr = en & d = 2011-09 - 01% 2010% 57 %3 A 31 & sap 3A = dsp & q = youtube

1. go in Firefox "Help".
2. click on "restart with disabled modules.
3. click on "restart".
4. the browser closes and a popup box will open.
5. Select 'Reset all the preferences of the user by default Firefox'.

problem Windows xp and avg internet security
Program AVG Internet Security - AVG PC Tune Up - changed/corrupted my Windows Defragmenter program. Before downloading the free version of this Tune Up program that I had always used the drive Windows Cleanup and Defragmenter programs. When I now try to defragment my files I get the following message when I try to analyse the "Disk Defragmenter has detected that Chkdsk is scheduled to run on the volume: (c). Please run Chkdsk/f.
AVG 2 offer help options a) contact Microsoft) b computer restoration to date before you download Tune Up.
Do not use my computer for anything else on internet purchases, store my pictures, my banking and the strange E-mail but does not want to resume a year. All of the suggestions. I have disinstalled program AVG PC Tune Up months trying to make my computer run faster. AVG informed me that my security bought 18 month program there is need the upgrade and that is why its doing all my programs so slow. I don't have any computer talk or knows anything much about them (code of machine 20 years ago!)
(a) contacting Microsoft won't help you
(b) restore your computer won't help youThe problem is your HARD drive has been marked "sale" and you cannot defragment a dirty volume.
Your HARD drive may have been marked dirty of a power interruption, using the power button, pulling the plug, abnormal termination, aborted reboot, etc..
You can query the dirty bit on a volume from the command prompt window. Here's how:
Click Start, run and enter in the box:
cmd
Click OK to open the command prompt window.
For example, to query the bit of impurity on drive C, type this command:
fsutil dirty query C:
The sample output:
Volume c is dirty
Volume C: is dirtyType "exit" to close the command prompt window.
No amount of order entry, no amount of editing the registry deletes the on a volume's dirty bit (sorry that Microsoft committed 'experts' Support Engineer)
Only a chkdsk with error correction (chkdsk/r) can clear the dirty bit, and it might not work the first time.
To run chkdsk/r, click on start, run and enter in the box:
Chkdsk /r
Click OK and the answer you want volume checked on next reboot (restart of course).
This disk check can last a long time (perhaps several to several hours) depending on the size of the volume, the amount of data on the volume and what the disk check finds to do. You may need to run more than once.
When chkdsk runs automatically restart either because XP thinks he needs to (perhaps your NTFS volume has been marked as dirty) or you have chosen to do it yourself, the results appear in the viewing Application event log. You should look there for the chkdsk log and no problems after running chkdsk.
To view the logs in Event Viewer, click Start, settings, Control Panel, administrative tools, event viewer.
A shortcut to the event viewer is to click on start, run and enter in the box:
%SystemRoot%\system32\eventvwr.msc
Click OK to launch the event viewer.
Search the Application log for an event originally by Winlogon, something like:
Event type: Information
Event source: Winlogon
Event category: no
Event ID: 1001
Description:Checking file system on C:
The type of the file system is NTFS.
A disk check has been programmed.
Windows will now check the disk.

0 KB in bad sectors.
237080 KB in use by the system.
65536 KB occupied by the log file.
13632736 KB available on disk.
Windows has finished checking your disk.If you see errors - same errors that are corrected, run chkdsk /r again until you see no error. You should have no errors.
Check again the dirty bit. Rinse and repeat if you wish.
