Solved: How to turn off AVG Free to allow an online scan
Kaspersky says it needs any AV programs to be turned off but I don't know how to turn AVG off--other than uninstalling/reinstalling it, which, of course, I would prefer not to do.

Open the Control Center, double click the Resident Shield
Uncheck Resident Shield active - then save changes
Don't forget to re-enable later!
