Hi guys, over the past couple of days, my AVG7.5 has been flashing up a splash screen stating that it will no longer be supported after May 31st.

1st, DO NOT click on upgrade, it will only take you to a trial version of the commercial version. You need to go the Grisoft's home page & get the free edition.

I upgraded on Andrea's rig this morning & AVG now provides a serach shield for the net. However, I think that it does something to your net access as I can no longer access any account as it keeps giving me "incorrect password". To check this out, I used my workstation which hasn't been upgraded to 8:0 yet, & all sites/accounts accessible.

Will keep trying throghout the day & if still no joy, will post on their forums to see if it is AVG at fault.

I've upgraded my other 2 rigs & everything is fine, but still keep getting incorrect password on a lot of accounts on Andrea's rig. Have checked everything out & can't find any problem. Usernames & passwords are correct.

This has only happened after the AVG upgrade. Will keep trying.

I've upgraded all rigs & no problems except Andrea's. I still get the incorrect password problem. No other programs installed on it before or after the AVG upgrade. Still trying to figure out what the problem may be. :cry:

Uninstalled AVG8, cleaned up registry & rebooted. Tried accessing accounts & no problems. Reinstalled AVG8 from Grisoft direct & rechecked account access. No problems.

Only answer I can come up with is that I originally saved to disk (USB Drive) so that I can install it directly without having to waste time accessing the net through customer's rigs, used drive to update Andrea's. That copy must have been corrupted. I can't think of any other reason.

Thanks for the tip JPLiz.
