AVG 8 – More Helpful Information

I received this from reader Merna [under comments here]  and checked out the links provided. I believe for those who are having issues with AVG 8 this site may be helpful. I will also be doing a second part covering additional information. Thanks Merna.

Ron,

Thank you for your numerous recent articles about AVG 7.5 and 8.0 (free and paid). For in-depth reports and comments your readers might like to try the following links. I found the two April ones in early May when researching for two discussion groups and just rechecked them for additional readers’ comments before posting here.

On the recheck I found there had been an earlier one in March (when the writer was a beta tester) and there has been a fourth one since. I would suggest reading all of them before trying anything as the later articles and/or readers’ comments contain answers/solutions to some of the problems and/or questions in the earlier ones.

I appreciated the thoroughness of Claus Valca’s posts about AVG and his readers’ comments. (And I think I’ll be having a good look around grandstreamdreams.blogspot.com to see what else he has to say.) My husband is using XP and has upgraded his free AVG to 8.0. I am still using 98SE and free AVG 7.5.

I read some of what has been posted at the links above, and found it very useful. I would recommend if you are having issues with AVG 8 you read what Claus has stated and also the comments which have been made. Between his site, my site here and the forums, users should find enough information to assist them in getting AVG 8 working. OR, make a decision to wait for a later release.

Comments welcome.
