This is a follow-up and final report on this situation. Some like to know what happened.
.
After nearly a week of working on this a few hours a night and one near ALL day long, I gave up and reloaded Win-XP-SP4.
So now for several more "days lost" in saving "X's" and reloading the OS and all the peripherals. (GRRRrrrrr!)
As I'm writing this, it dawns on me something similar happened in the 2K's, AVG ceased letting me use my PC normally and it irked me enough to seek out a different Anti-Virus program. I tried several but came back to AVG. (nearly hit 'Answer'…)AHHH, just remembered. One AVG update changed my FREE version to PAY version and strangled my PC where it was difficult to use. Formatted and reloaded the PC.
.
Since I never found the exact cause of this current problem, I'll probably continue with AVG, tho grudgingly.
.
Thanks for your help, it IS appreciated.

…ALSO, I am the Admin and the only user, other than Guest, yet AVG wants the Admin logged in. This needs to be fixed.

27 minutes+ and AVG has yet to be removed via the "remover tool".
I tried earlier to use the MS "Remove Programs", AVG needs Admin pprivilages.
.
Seems every turn these days, someone or some software somewhere needs TOTAL CONTROL of our lives. That movie '1984' sure seems to be coming true.
… remover tool still working… 34 minutes and counting.
Any other suggestions on getting rid of this (now becoming) POS?
I have tried rebooting Soft & Hard, created and removed my PC account password, nothing works.
Do I have to UN-REinstall AVG or is this the new norm?
The reason I use "Temporary disable AVG protection".
It slows the loading of Webpages by at minimum of about 5 seconds. If I'm in a rush, most times, I simply don't have this kind of time to waste. When not in a rush, it wears on my patience, which I have loads of.

I logged in and did the following (below) filling out the form.
The page showed LOADING and a spinning flower for 17 minutes. I have to get to work.

WHY is this AVG being so obstinate? I've tried uninstalling in "SAFE MODE", it still wantts Admin rights. I AM THE ONLY person using my only PC. I loaded this, I should be able to uninstall it. This is really rediculouse!
