AVG Anti-Virus Free

[Zambo]

Anyone using the latest version released a few days ago?

Me. Generally happy with AVG apart from the constant messages and attempts to make you upgrade to the paid version by stealth.

Buggered if I can find scan reports. I've done a scan and scheduled to run weekly, and got the results for today, but unable to find reports, history etc.

Looking at mine, Click the Antivirus FREE button in the bottom left. Hovering over it changed the word to OPEN. Click that and new window opens with the reports link at the top.

I think it's deliberately made confusing so you'll click on some upgrade button instead.

When I do that I see 'menu' and the drop down shows settings etc, but nothing which says history or reports

is this any help?

Mine doesn't say AVG Zen, just says AVG

I'd still click that button and see if whatever screen opens up has the report link.

Following comes up. No reports link. I'm not that bothered as I get the message no threats found, but would be interested to know what the difference is between Zen and normal free anti virus. Tried Googling but no luck. Thanks anyway.

Seems like AVG has not detected the Chocolate Orange trojan that has infected your machine.

Thanks for the tip off. It wasn't the Chocolate Orange trojan in the end, but it made me investigate. It's the Cadburys Egg Chase Virus at Easter, which apparently is different to the Easter Cadburys egg chase virus. When I boot up now all I get is a big egg on the screen, and the only way to get out of it is to buy a Cadburys egg and insert the receipt number.

Anyone know how I can get rid of this without ballooning to 20 st.

Posted on the AVG forums. Apparently the latest version which was available early this week doesn't have the history of scan reports option. If you want access to reports suggest you stick with the one you have.

If you managed to download a new version this week, can you post a link to download. Thanks

I gave up using AVG and started using Windows defender about 6 months back and have had no problems.
