Hello Kaylene,
I can understand your concern. Please do not worry, running AVG PC TuneUp in your computer background will not slow down your computer performance. It seems that the maintenance scan or disk defrag is running in your computer. This disk defrag will generally take more than an hour or some times up to 5 hours to complete. This depends on the data present in your computer. If you do not want this AVG PC TuneUp to run, then you can uninstall the same from your computer control panel. If you face any difficulties, feel free to contact us.
The problem is with the AVG product itself. Their product is nothing but a scam. I've been posting Post-up notes on their products in stores telling people what crap their product is and I'm going tostart having friends in other cities do the same thing. This is easily done through Facebook and it's totally legal. There is absolutely nothing any of the morons at AVG can do about it.
For over 24 Hours I have seen the AVG icon with the white triangle in the centre and when I place my cursor over it i see "Now running PC Maintenance".
I open AVG and I see nothing scanning and the free trial of Tune Up says it will expire today.
So what is happening and why is this continually running?? And I have uninstalled AVG Free and reinstalled it and uninstalled AVG Tune Up… or I thought I did.
HOW do I turn it off please? Will it be causing my computer to lag?

You are most welcome, Kaylene.
The disk defragementation shouldn't get stuck for 24-36 hours, I apologize for the inconvenience caused.
You can try installing the PC TuneUp again and check whether the process takes more time.
