yes it will until you change the settings in start up. i have the same thing it is updating every time you log on. you can set it to update at specific times when in settings. its a good antivirus though good choice.

You have a good antivirus program, and several postings have told you how to set it so it doesn't start every time your computer is booted up, whch is time-consuming and very annoying. AVG's current free version will be replaced in January 2007. They are NOT discontinuing their free antivirus, they are upgrading it.
