Whatever..

since posting i updated to DB 2109/4692

since you couldnt help with what i provided, I went ahead and ran the installer, and chose "repair"
no error now.. thanks anyway
I do hope that my experience helps at all though.
Cheers and thanks again for a wonderful free virus protection.. I've been using it 3 years and dependable.

also having VProtect error messages..

I get a message when opening every new page of my browser that says VProtect has stopped working. This occured right after running the AVG update yesterday. It is extremely annoying and I haven't found a solution when I Google.

All I can determine is that it is a funtion of AVG and wonder why I can't find help here on the issue. I will try and find the 'repair' option the Depth mentions but don't feel that I have enough information to know what to do.

VProtect working again apparently..

I downloaded the latest version of the free AVG 2012 and ran it in 'repair' mode. (There are 3 options: install, repair, remove.) After my computer restarted, I opened up my browser and now do not have the VProtect stopped working error message anymore.

It was easy.

yes thats what I had to do.. sorry i wasn't more specific.. I do hope this thread helps in the long run.. and im glad i wasnt alone on this one
cheers

VProtect..

Hi, I am also getting the VProtect message on start up of my laptop but have uninstalled AVG completly. How do I stop this message appearing now as AVG isn't on my laptop anymore?

Hello Lil-Mary,

Please perform repair installation using latest installation package.

If that does not help, provide us with outputs described in post 185192.

Thank you

Thank you, but as I said in my previous message I don't have AVG installed on my laptop anymore, so what do I do now to stop the VProtect error message from showing on start up?

Hello Lil-Mary,

In order to analyze your situation please provide us with Msinfo output.

Thank you
