Have you properly configured AVG and Adaware?

Do you have the latest definitions?

Use different scanners. Are these free or registered scanners?

Get a real virus scanner. The free version of AVG doesn't even have a real time scanner.

    What do you mean the free version of AVG hasn't got a real-time scanner? Mine seems to. Explain what you mean by this.

    It only scans on command, it doesn't keep monitoring your files. Not from what I have seen.

      My one sometimes halts to a full screen DOS-like display saying blah detected, allow, disable or heal or something like that I can't remember. Seems real-time to me.

      The free edition?

      I couldn't seem to engage that option that starts at boot up because it kept being disabled after I reset it.. Beats me what it was called, I reinstalled Kaspersky.

        No the startup boot scanner is differnent. I was reffering to when I'm in Windows. The screen goes red and DOSy, with info about a virus and what do I want to do.

        Unless I got sent the full version by mistake!

        I haven't been infected with a virus for quite a while - so I have no idea what AVG's report would look like.
