Windows Security Centre - AV2009 problem ?

[westwinds31]

Hi everyone !

Not sure if I have a problem here, but it is pretty annoying to be honest.

When I start up my laptop, Windows runs as usual (I am using XP) and then Windows Anti-Virus pop-ups come up and tell me that AV2009 is available and that I have no Firewall installed, which could be critical to my system.

I do have AVG Free installed and thought that this would cover anti-virus, spyware etc

Is there any problem here ? How do I get rid of the constant reminders that I have to install AV09 to protect my PC ?

Any suggestions gratefully received, on both AVGs safety and also the Windows AV09 pop-ups.

Thanks

Russ

Hi...following on from my earlier post....Windows Security Centre is coming up saying that I need to load AV2009 to sort out viruses that are on my laptop. I am running XP and every 20 minutes the Windows go "big" ...the taskbar and internet explorer get really, really big and I have turned it off straight away.

Can anyone help please ? I am using AVG Free for my protection and the Windows Security Centre pop-ups have just started coming up, saying I need to update ?

Thanks...Russ
