REL: AVG Antivirus

I just upgraded to V7.x AGV Free (after being forced from 6.x). Guess what..it's removed all of the icons from the desktop, removed all of the desktop settings, reset all of IE6's settings, changed my home page AND wiped all of the last 2 years worth of emails from Outlook. In addition, there's no way to return to the old settings and they don't include an uninstall. Go somewhere else rather than upgrading unless you want to rebuild everything manually. R. Wink

I upgraded and didn't have any problems...I find AVG to be one of the best anti virus programs out there! And it's free if you choose that option!

I too have used AVG for years and have installed it on countless machines. As far as I know, none have suffered from the update. In fact, it even cleans up the old version for you as it installs the new one. Not sure what hit your machine, but I don't think it was just the AVG.
