    You only need to register your serial code within 30 days *after* you install and insert the code.

    AVG provide "sales codes" which, if used as is, work for 30 days. Until you register your code, and get a license code, it won't work for 12 months. You can register at http://www.avg.com/registration or within the software.

    I need help with AVG I Protect! First of all it keeps disabling. I haven't ascertained yet if one of my apps is doing it or it is disabling itself. Secondly, when I check to prompt before quarantine I get a test box warning that I won't be prompted. Go figure! Thank You!

    Got this as well but have a question. Nothing has been installed yet although on their website I did register, does that mean my product is active now since I registered but did not add my key to the product?

    That happened to me too so maybe it's a glitch. If I put a check next to the "prompt before disabling" then click save I see the check survives after IDP is minimized to the system tray. But if I then uncheck and minimize the there is no prompt.

    Did not get my code for the IDP, after registering. Contacted AVG support, and recieved a reply within minutes. That`s how it should be done. Thumbs up AVG support.

    Antivirus and IDP are running together with Prevx, with no issues so far.

    CleanMem disables Identity Protection at CMs scheduled run times. What the heck kind of anti-malware product can be shut down by just cleaning RAM?

    Good news for those who can't afford an AV package. Having a paid AVG "for free" is better than "nothing" I guess :D

    I am hoping so, but at $2.75 I figured I would buy a license just in case. Plus it can be used with other AVs. So maybe I want to run MSE with IDP, or Avast and IDP, etc...

    Hi:

    With the avg 9 license does it allow us to update to avg 10 (new one that is in beta when it comes out)? or are we stuck with version 9? Also do we download it directly from avg site or through avg 9 update? Thank you in advance for your reply.

    Once you get the license key, you can download the setup from anywhere and use the key to activate your license.

    When AVG 10 releases, AVG will offer a special webpage for conversion of AVG 9 keys to AVG 10 keys. All you need to do is enter your key there and then avail of the free upgrade to AVG 10.

    I've answered this earlier. Read the thread.

    When 2011 is released, you can upgrade. You're getting a proper full commercial AVG AV license.
