someone at - it information on AVG anti-virus and cleaning
a man called Indian sounding... trip me problems in my errors of computers etc. then put the avg system in my computer... I don't think people ripping me off or dishonest... Oops... and now I'm worried that he put in the spyware or something... instead of my computer works better... It slowed to a crawl? any help?
Hello
The Net is full of scams like the one you describe.
Either they want you sell software without value or plant spyware to steal banking passwords and / or make an identity theft on you.
You should never give someone at - it remote access to your computer.
And if you already have an Antivirus installed, you do not install another AV before removing the first.
More than one AV installed will cause system problems.
Here is the link to the AVG removal tool:
http://www.Avg.com/ww-en/utilities
But my advice to you is to backup your data and reinstall the operating system.
It's the only way you'll know for certain that you deleted something they've installed.
Also change the banking and credit card details / passwords with your credit card company, Bank.
See you soon.

Vista premium operating system? need to use AVG anti virus and pc tune up?
I have an older laptop OS Vista premium and AVG anti virus and p c tune up.
I realize are now 8.1 W not the product AVG; can I rely on Windows defender disc cleanup, Defragmenter (and others I don't know) to protect the laptop? and remove AVG as I did on my most recent portable W8.1 mind?
Thank you
FOR EXAMPLE
Hello TedGibney,
As in earlier versions of Windows, for example, the Bill said Windows Defender, Vista only acts as an Anti-Spyware. It was only in later additions of Windows that Microsoft has added anti virus ability.
As you have used AVG before I would suggest that you follow this anti virus application, when you are running Windows Vista.
About PC Tune Up it would be wise to not use that, like many Tune Up / registry cleaners these applications can cause more problems than they actually heal.

AVG anti virus detect any ADF application as being infected
We feel something weird right now. Since some time between 21 July and 22 all versions of AVG anti-virus are detecting the ADF as being infected by a virus JS/Redir javascript libraries. I already tried to contact the AVG on the issue, but they still have to answer in return. At the moment our applications are seen by users as infected with the virus. Since our application is internet facing us cannot really control what anti virus used by our clients. AVG is a fairly popular anti virus so I do not know that some of our customers was probably hit by it.
Until someone asks even the demo hosted by Oracle to http://jdevadf.oracle.com/adf-richclient-demo/faces/index.jspx component causes AVG trigger, it is not only our application do.
Any ideas on what can be done to get AVG to fix this fast (I think Oracle could carry more weight with them so we would do).I remember a similar question 2 or 3 years ago, where this provider software used a false positive. This issue then slipped by Oracle inform the seller of this false positive

Yes, it's a good idea to remove it if you don't plan to use at a later date... Also I suggest that you run the removal tool (Cleanup utility).

Hello
1. are you able to install other applications successfully?According to my research, this error message appears if you have traces of a previous installation of the AVG software.Download the AVG remover to remove the previous version and then try the installation again and check.

AVG disables Windows Defender by default
If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.
There is nothing to worry.
Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.
.
If you want to have additional protection against malware using the version FREE of Malwarebytes AntiMalware:
http://www.Malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
And for now, change startup Vista programs without using Defender, use one of these methods:
"How to use MSCONFIG in Windows Vista"
http://netsquirrel.com/Msconfig/msconfig_vista.html
Or the program Autoruns for FREE:
"V11.21 Autoruns for Windows"

AVG Anti-virus (malware) does not illuminate
My os is windows vista Basic, windows defender is Windows Firewall turned on, I get alert windows from security saying me my avg anti virus (malware protection) is disabled. However, it will not turn on, ive recently installed avg 8.5 (free), I never had no problem with the previous avg 7, could be something to do with the Defender w or w Firewall?, any help please.
Hi murphmeister,.
Thank you for taking the time to post.
It is possible to Windows Defender and if that AVG has a Malware/spyware scanner, it can cause conflicts as it is recommended to have only a spy software put real-time protection. It is allowed to have several installed, it has simply not recommended to have the two together at the real time protection. It really depends what the following shows us.
· Click on the Start Orb on the Office
· Select Control Panel
· Select Security Center (Classic view)
Under protection from malware it shows under the protection against viruses and software spies and other software malware protection?
Have you tried to reinstall AVG?
AVG seems to work; You can scan and access the program very well as far as you can tell?
The following steps will attempt to repair management Windows (WMI) Instrumentation which can cause the Security Center to see the average price before trying the following steps please make sure that you do not have a restore point of the current system.
http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx/KB/322756
· Click on the Start Orb on the Office
· In the Search box, type cmd (do not hit enter)
· Right click on cmd.exe and select run as administrator
· Type or copy the following that winmgmt /verifyrepository and press enter
· We should get this message: "WMI repository is incompatible"
· Type or copy the following winmgmt /salvagerepository and press enter (you may need to try this one a couple times)
Please let us know.

Since you have posted in Forum Vista, I will assume that you are using the Vista operating system.
You can get this information by navigating to the 'Start' menu and selecting 'Security Center' in the 'Control Panel', then you should be able to see what is running (antivirus/antimalware) under the tab "Malware Protection".
