[pchelpers] Re: Toshiba L45 notebook - multiple problems

Cy,
 
I  paid  AVG  about  $65  for  the  software  and  now  AVG  wants  about  
another  $45  to   activate  it.  And  constant  nag  screens  about  being  
unprotected.  I  will  try  your  link  now.
 
I  received  my  new  AC  adapter  today   which  works.  I  uninstall   AVG  
but  cannot   find  it  in  my  control  panel.  I  hope  your  link  below   
solves the  problem.

AVG is FREE for personal use if you want that version. It is the latest, 
automatically updates etc. and seems to me it is very effective. Of 
course you can be conned into buying it if you choose to do so.
