Hi.
This trusted website I have been using for years is being blocked by AVG stating it has a virus:
https://cricketonlinehd.com/blog/tag/paid-live-cricket-hd/
I've contacted the website and they assure me they are virus-free.
I have friends who are using the site without problems.
Would it be safe to disconnect AVG while watching the site?
Or is there a better solution?
Thanks and bet wishes,
Jack

I can't cancel my AVG TuneUp subscription. After clicking on "logout", I still get "Unfortunately, an error has occurred - Close this window and try again" on the screen, for the second day. I always close the window as advised, but the same thing still appears. What can I do?

I am using Internet Security since years and Virus definition update is defined to be done automatically which worked fine for a long time. Since a while the virus definition file update doesn't work anymore (while the app update itself is working properly). I get the alert that the VIRUS definition file is not up to date but when going through settings menu to start the searching for latest version the searching starts and the progress bar quickly goes from 0% to 100%. I get the info displayed that there is a new file avaiöable from today but I cannot install it. Repeating these steps doesnt help. Restart AVG neither. Also restart of the computer doesn't fix the problem. Internet connection is fine, no blocked pages or similar things which should be the reason for this problem as far as I can judge.

Any idea how to solve?

Hello Neill,

You've reached the AVG community support forum.
Could you specify whether you meant if the AVG Internet Security installed in your Mac can scan your iPhone for malware, when connected via USB?
Awaiting your response.

I´v bought and installed AVG VPN yesterday. I use Windows 10, Firefox and Outlook.
I have the same problem as other persons within the community: VPN kills the internet connection and therefore stops any phone calls via landline telephone as well.
What can I do to use AVG VPN and my internet successfully?

I've just purchased AVG internet Security and have begun by running a Deep Scan on my 500 GB MacBook Pro 2017. It's been running now for more than two days so I'm wondering if this is normal or if something is wrong. It's now scanning my PhotoLibraries which are on a 1TB external drive with 800 GB used.

Hi,
I have been charged on numerous occasions for a product that I don’t even use, and the subscription doesn’t even show up on my account, also can’t access payment history as it’s showing nothing there either. 

The payments have been made to Digital River. How am I supposed to cancel if nothing is showing up on my account???

When I enter my username and password on my email provider's site I receive the following AVG message:
 
Threat Secured
We've safely aborted connection on signon.telstra.com because it was infected with URL:Phishing

It only occurs on my desktop (laptop - no problem). O/S is Windows 10.

How do I remove the threat/alert?
