Hi! Refresh of Firefox seem to have fixed the issue. No message in 2 reboots!
Thanks a lot for the help!
Hi, I do NOT have AVG Secure Search installed.
If I look at the list of Programs to uninstall and sort by name, I only see "AVG" and "AVG Protection".
When I launch Firefox on Windows10, I get an AVG popup that says "Please click 'Relaunch Browsers' to apply your security settings."
It also has a "Remind me later" button and if I choose the "NEVER" option, it still pops up this window next time I launch a browser after a PC restart...
Thanks for helping!
Regards.

Hi, I am running free AVG on win10.
I installed AVG about 3 days ago.
Now it's givnig me the "Please wait while AVG applies your security settings" to my browser window and it's just sitting there doing who-knows-what.
Is there a fix for this?
Thanks!
Hi, for anyone stumbling onto this thread with the same issue. After refreshing firefox I still had the same issue. More interestingly the AVG window popped up even without launching a browser.
Finally I found this thread linked below and also noticed an AVG process with the phrase "search" in task manager, that launched on startup. (Why AVG why!)
I deleted the whole Roaming directory related to this file. No more popups...so far...
The process running: AVG-Secure-Search-Update_1114av.exe

In AVG LinkScanner and OnlineShield are enabled. Could it be one of those two giving the issue?
