Hello, I cannot find this option. I get the choose language and then a screen that says next or cancel. Also, I am not comparing apples and oranges. AVG has their antivirus program as well as an anti spyware program that is a trial version. Also, do you mean the control panel add or remove programs option? I would really be surprised to find spybot in the add or remove hardware option.

The actual option is called "Full installation for Blind users" or something like that. Sorry about that.
