That's the error message i got too when i tried to run it in normal safe
mode because i hadn't bother to read the directions on
www.grisoft.com/faq/us_faqtext.php?id=224&sid=25
and
www.grisoft.com/faq/us_faqtext.php?id=53&id_lang=1&sid=25
I think it should work for you too in safe mode with command prompt. It
worked for me, but i got the following error message that i was able to
ignore though:
16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem
cmd.exe -avg
An application has attempted to directly access the hard disk, which
cannot be supported. This may cause the application to function
incorrectly. Choose "Close" to terminate the application.
I'd be interested if others also get this error message and if anybody
can explain what this means.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
