AVG does not want to install on my PC
About a month ago, I bought windows xp Service Pack 2. everything has been fine exept when i try to install AVG, during the installation i recieve an error that says:
You are trying to install AVG on a windows operating system, that unfortunatly does not support all functions required for correct operation of the product. Instalation cannot continue.

The supported operating systems (Windows 2000 SP4+ Update Rollup pack and higher)
are listed on our website: http://www.avg.com/ww.special-old-os-app

I went to the site and had no idea what to do!! Please help I reallly need an anti virus, i already tried Mcaffe, and Avast!, AVG is the only one for me, please help! thank you.
