Hello Jeffrey,
We will check this for you. Let us know the version of AVG you have installed. Open AVG Internet Security -> Menu -> About -> check its version.
Share the screenshot http://support.avg.com/SupportArticleView?urlname=How-to-create-a-screenshot of CPU usage differences when AVG is enabled and disabled.
whenever I enable self protection my cpu runs at 100% and makes the pc unusable. With self protection off its fine
This has been an issue for ages… Look around on the forums many people have this issue… My advise would be to get a refund and go else where honestly best decision you would ever make
