I'm running avg 7.5 free edtion on windows xp. I have a red windows alert icon in the bottom of the page,I click on that it shows my Virus Protection is out of date. The AVG icon is black, it says the Internal virus database is out-of-date.
I have uninstalled the old one I had and reinstall a new one,but it still shows out-of- date. .What am I doing wrong?? Have I got the right Free Edtion? What have I got to do to get it right? I worked on this 4 hrs early this moning,I have uninstall and reinstall 2 different times..The one I'm trying to install is,,AvG Anti-virus and internet Security-AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition..Is that the right Free edition??..Oh,All updates are installed also...Please Help

go here and download it it will be the correct AVG.
once you download it you need to update it first thing.
also uninstall the old one first before downloading.

When you run updates (from AVG Control Panel) do you get an error? Does id connect and show updating? Even with a fresh installation this is necessary.
Do you have anyother anti virus product installed, if so get rid of one or the other. You do not want two ACTIVE anti virus products on the same machine at the same time they will conflict with each other.
You may need to redownload the copy you have if it will not update. You can also run the online cleaner from another site to check and be sure a virus isn't keeping it from installing correctly.

Open program and click update. The AVG will establish Internet connection. Your virus database and other stuff on AVG will be updated. Only then its icon will appear in colors.

Right click the AVG icon in the system tray and press check for updates. Press internet then select the updates and download. Check twice to make sure
