My GUI won't run at all, so I can't perform scans or anything as desired and the tray doesn't load. In task manager, when I go to processes, there are several AVG related processes, such as Scanning Core Module, E-Mail scanner, Identity Protection Service, Online Shield, Resident Shield, and Watchdog, but what bothers me is that I can't load up the GUI at all or the tray to do a manual scan/update check. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling using the removal tool and offline installer as well. I've made sure all the services are enabled for AVG in MSconfig, as well. When I try to load the GUI via the AVG2012 icon or boot the tray icon via the AVG Tray Monitor icon, my computer will attempt to load it, giving me the thinking cursor, but then it will give up. I've watched the process tree for this task, as well, and it will show up for the time the cursor is "thinking", but then the process will immediately be killed after approximately 15 seconds. I've used AVG for years and have never had this issue. AVG 2011 worked perfectly and I never had these issues until I upgraded to 2012. Please help. I love your software and don't want to have to resort to another virus scanner.

I'm also using AdAware for anti-spyware (which I disabled to see if that would fix the issue, and it didn't) and ZoneAlarm Firewall. No other antivirus, anti-spyware, firewall, etc. is loaded and Windows Defender is disabled. msinfogmer.zip
