Quite possibly - except I never installed it.  So how can I uninstall?

Are you sure? From my experience it was installed when machineidcreator error message occured.
It can be unsinstalled by following this article.
Thanks

Hi - new here.  Just installed AVG 2015 on my old XP the other day.  Every reboot I got a machineidcreator error message.  Driving me nuts.  I looked at the AVG boards from 2012/13, and all the first 20 (free) google suggestions that came up and dived recklessly into regedit and at anything C:\ I could find.  Deleted anything vaguely AVG.  Useless.  But there was one tip I came across: Glary Utilities 5.  Didn't do a thing to solve the problem when I ran it.  But I persevered and went into Advanced Tools and wiped out anything in the subsections (like Startup Items) that suggested AVG. And it seems - touch wood - to have worked.  As, still, does AVG.  And since machineidcreator is one of the most irritating brats i've ever come across, i decided to share the possible solution.

HI Geoff,
Uninstallation of AVG Toolbar should help.
Thanks
