Updating on start up every time I switch my computer on and seems to stop my computer from functioning properly (or not working at all) until it has finished updating which can on most occasions take between 5-15 minutes? Be grateful for any advice,

Thanks for your help Alan :slight_smile:

forgot to say its AVG Internet security 2015

OK Paul, Not sure which version of AVG you're using but bring up your AVG User Interface -> Options -> Advanced Settings -> Schedules -> Definition Update Schedule. Is 'Run when computer starts up if task has been missed' available for you to disable?.

Paul, Does your system comply with the recommended requirements for AVG?.. Have a look @ this article (https://support.avg.com/SupportArticleView?urlname=What-are-AVG-system-requirements-and-supported-opearting-systems).

OK Paul, There's nothing lost in experimenting!
