Exclamation Solved: AVG Anti-Virus Free Resident Shield Not Active
Hi everyone. I have Windows Vista Home Premium and I am trying to use AVG Anti-Virus Free on my computer. Well, it keeps telling me that the Resident Shield is not active and I have no idea how to fix this. I tried going in to the settings and deactivating it and reactivating it but that did not fix the problem. Please help!
