I downloaded AVG free and seem to have got a trial program named Internet Security. I just want AVG free, but cannot get rid of that message. I downloaded en used AVG Remover, and tried again, but it still pops up. Verry irritating and time comsuming... What can I do?

Robert

Thanks for your speedy answer, but alas, that did not work either.
When you say: uninstall all the traces of AVG, I can't do that. After using AVG-remover I still see on the C-drive a directory AVG with a lot of files and a directory AVG Web TuneUp with a file: vprot.exe. I can't remove these directories.
What must I do next?

I followed your instructions to the letter - only I did not download Antivirus_Free_1817, but Antivirus_Free_x64_1818. However, I still get the pop-up (in Dutch): Your trial version of Internet Security is expired :-(
Should I repeat the whole instruction and then download Antivirus_Free_1817.exe ?

Thanks in advance,

Robert
Hello Robert.
We appreciate your efforts.
You need to install Antivirus_Free_1817.exe itself.
We request you to uninstall all the traces of AVG and try re-install it.
Please get back to us if you have any difficulty with the installation.
Thank you.
