Hi,
I am running XPHome with AVG8 (free version) on an older PC.
I just deleted a lot of old programs that I no longer need on that computer, and so I want to run various cleaning programs to restore optimal function with the new software configuration. But most of these programs require you to disable AV software first, and I can't shut the MF $#@$!#$ avgrsx.exe resident shield off, even through I have disabled it in every possible way in the program settings and in msconfig. I can end all other AVG processes, but that one refuses to stop or not load on restart regardless of the fact that the UI lists the resident shield as disabled.
I looked around and this was apparently a big issue with the release of AVG 8 last year, but there were no solutions in any of the posts on various sites that I could find. I am hoping that 8 months later someone knows of a way to to shut this mothertrucker off???
Please help me before I lose control and take a 2x4 to the whole thing...
