Hi, seems to on XP, and alt F4 closes the window, not the control centre 
itself. In fact it always asks you if you really want to close it if you 
close whe actual program.

Cheers

Just a warning though to be careful not to actually close the AVG Control
Centre so it isn't running at all.

It may also depend on whether you use Vista or XP how the notification
message lets you opt out.  I've tried just escaping on Vista, and it doesn't
get rid.
