How do I temporarily disable AVG 7?
How do I temporarily disable AVG 7?
I want to install some other antivirus software which I am told AVG will most probably object to. So I need to disable AVG while doing the other installtion. The trouble is that I don't see any option to stop or exit AVG such that it stops working. Franklin |

You have to pop into the properties for the resident shield and uncheck the boxes. - -- Frode -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 8.1 iQA/AwUBQi4f5uXlGBWTt1afEQL/EwCeNOsxZuRvNtEaktHczuP4ECTpY5YAoNut tMQ2bzN7mqgzy2SEszzalD2V =IdnR -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Frode |

I just right click on the AVG icon in my task bar and close the "centre from there. Admittedly it might not close it all down, but installations that require AV closures have not complained.

Re: How do I temporarily disable AVG 7?
Run msconfig, click on startup and uncheck everything that starts with avg.
then reboot the machine.

Re: How do I temporarily disable AVG 7?
Enable the Control Panel, and disable the Resident Shield, and uncheck
everything "AVG" in msconfig startup menu. The new AV might detect it, anyway, so you might have to uninstall AVG to install the new one. I found that to be the case. charlie R "Franklin" <> wrote in message news:1110302825.add5559414c64795e6a0f9ce269f287f@t eranews... > How do I temporarily disable AVG 7? > > I want to install some other antivirus software which I am told AVG > will most probably object to.
