Hello everyone,
I have a little problem. I installed MS Vista 5536 and re-installed AVG's Free Anti-virus version 7.1.0.405 and now every time I reboot Defender blocks it from starting up. I right click on blocked programs and click allow and it works fine, however on the next reboot its the same old problem. Please Help. Thanks! Billy |

Do you have AVG installed on another drive?
This happened to me last time and has once again happened - AVG coild not reproduce the problem I thought it would be fine this time - it does load when you click but the olny way to stop the boot error was to disable UAC - I don't want to do this. Last time when I tested without UAC enabled everything worked without error - use UAC and AVG produces this error ![]() I was fine on first install but from cold boot error now have to uninstall unless I want to see the error each time which I don't. I really thought it was just the old beta but know now we have it again. "BillyBob" wrote: Hello everyone, I have a little problem.

I had the same problem. After giving AVG control center for my user account full permission (UAC), Defender stopped blocking it on startup. |
