Recently I purchased and installed AVG Internet security on my PC. I was happy to note that during installation an AVG Secure Browser was installed, and that to my experience it works very fast.
However, when I run Smart Scanning, at the end of the program it recommends purchase of upgrade to VPG Secure....even if I alreday have a secure browser.
Many may experience the same, I just want to share my unhappiness with the many recommendations I recieve for the various AVG products. There seems no way to stop these.
All Best,
Søren
Hi Soren,
We're glad to clarify this for you.
Please let us know the version of AVG installed on your computer (Open AVG Internet Security - Menu - About).
From your description, we see that you're being notified about the privacy issues during the smart scan & while attempting to fix them, you're prompted to purchase AVG Secure VPN. This is the usual behavior.
Certain privacy, performance issues detected, requires a paid license (AVG Secure VPN/AVG TuneUp) to fix them.
You can ignore those privacy, performance issues detected during smart scan & complete the scan. Once you've finished, the latest version might not display it again.
Alternately, you can disable notification for other AVG programs by following the below steps :
Open AVG Internet Security - Menu - Settings - General - Personal privacy - Uncheck both options below 'offers' section.
