Problem with AVG 2011 (free edition)?
-
Ok, so an update came on my comp asking me to update to AVG 2011 and so I updated it. Then like two days later (after I used my comp just fine the night before), these error boxes came up on my screen everytime I clicked on something on my computer. They even come up as soon as I turn on my computer (after windows loads). They have a different ".exe" title on the top left corner, but mostly say: "C:\Windows\system32\AVGRSS.DLL is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system sdministrator or the software vendor for support." I already tried to uninstall it and re-install it to see if that would work, but after it didn't work I uninstalled it again. Now I am currently without anti-virus protection while on the comp and those annoying boxes STILL keep popping up. Also my comp is much slower. Does anyone know why this is happening?

Sometimes AVG can be buggy. If the AVG install is causing you problems uninstall it and install Microsoft Security Essentials (a free antivirus from Microsoft) or Avast antivirus. Both are good.

I have not had AVG quite on me but when anti-virus quite sometimes it a virus turning it off malware can do this too I wise Norton utilities to clean the system for errors when it not a virus how ever I realize not everyone has Norton to clean registry and I check AVG 2011 has some problems but I did not find the one you describe you can check and see if it a virus or malware only a small chance other wise registry editor. I will keep checking on this If livewire is right try this you need to run chkdsk or error checking here how to get there in XP, vista and windows 7go to my computer XP or computer vista windows 7 right click on C: a menu pop up left click on properties a box pop up click on the tool tab you will see error checking click check now a box pop up click yes another box with two little boxs pop up make sure both are check, click start abox pop up click Schedule disk check restart computer and let it run take about an hour if it like 5 min it did not run, that real bad because you then need a program like Norton ghost 15 to check the disk This is my scrip for removal of Virus and Malware and some things to think about before you do anything please Read first # 1 should clean most computers however there will be computer that need step #2 and real bad ones all of step #3 System restore bad idea if you think you have a virus it may spread it you can lose files or programs you paid for depends on when last restore was done. never do a restore without having a full backup format: never format with out a full backup If you don't have internet access: go to control internet options click on connection tab LAN settings uncheck proxy server (unless you set this up or your ISP/Administrator) virus was probable using port 6555 for it update 1: Your computer may be infected it need to be clean. run a full virus scan if you don't have anti-virus go to download.com and get a free one. do not by one on line you are infected and you may end up giving you credit card info out to thieves if it won't let you download an anti virus program boot your computer in safe-mode with networking (that the press F8 key when you restart your computer) I recommend a cold start shut the computer down and leave it off 30 sec. then restart and press F8 remember pick with arrows keys safe-mode with networking login to windows when it come up and go to download.com and download Spybot search & Destroy or MalwareBytes both will install in safe mode and run do the updates for it and do a full scan then go to eset.com and do their free online virus scan. if this doesn't work 2: you need to go to http://www.ubcd4win.com/ on a friends computer and build a a bootable CD or DVD download file is at http://www.securitywonks.net/listing/view/3/UBCD-for-Windows and this one does it all will give you internet access to update the files for spybot search & destroy then run it.
