AVG 7.5 users
AVG users will know that you have a colored icon down in your sys tray.
When it turns black/gray, it means your dat files are old.
Mine never turns that color as I have on auto update of my dat files.
However yesterday all three of my PCs (two towers, one laptop) the icon was gray/black, yet I had the newest dat files.
However when double clicking the icon to launch the control center, there was an option to upgrade to 8.5 via the interface.
Do this if you are having the same snafu I was.
It will give you a new license key which is different than your old one.
Mine is still good until next September, then I have ante up more $$$ to extend the subscription.
This indeed did fix the black/gray icon.
They want you to upgrade to the newer engine.
The interface is way different, will take a bit to get use to.
This new version also has a root kit detector, very nice.
I have been using AVG for years now, I got tired of the bloatware that Mcafe became, and it slowed down my PCs.
I can not even tell AVG is running hardly when it scans every morning when I get up.
