I have paid for a year's subscription to VPN secure. Got the 'confirm email', and when clicked on says ' already registered' ( or similar).
When I check "MY AVG" the icon is not highlighted and I get messages when using the internet to say I need to use VPN secure.
AVG order number is 11216467972
I am in the same situation. It worked for a while. Now once more, i can't turn it on. It is all a waste of time and money!
