AVG has released the 2012 version of their free anti-virus and other paid versions. Installing the update should be quick and easy if you following the instructions below.<\/p>\n

When a pop-up from the system tray appears – as shown below (near the clock on the bottom right corner of your screen), click “Update Now”.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

By default “Full protection” is selected. For the free\/basic version which we recommend, select “Basic protection” (as shown below) then click “Next”.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

That’s it! The installation should continue, then prompt you to restart your computer when finished.<\/p>\n

After installation if you get a prompt to scan your computer for errors or problems with the AVG PC Analyzer component, I recommend avoiding doing the scan. It looks for registry errors and junk files among other things – which are harmless – then prompts you to purchase the add-on if you want items fixed.<\/p>\n

If you have problems with the automatic installer, you can manually download the new free version directly from AVG’s website: <\/strong>

If you need assistance downloading and installing the new AVG Anti-Virus, please call or e-mail us. We’ll be happy to take care of it for you, and give your computer a check-up\/tune-up while we are there.<\/p>\n\"Print<\/a> Print This Article<\/a>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
