MARION HARRISON avg is blocking sites after latest virus defini...
Hi,
I use AVG Ultimate 2017 (paid version). I have the Windows 10 creator (latest update).
Everything was working fine yesterday.
After an update of virus definitions last night / this morning, some of my web pages are blocked.
How do I get these unblocked? one of the pages is the facebook login and my own webpage on google sites.
Any help / advise would be appreciated.
many thanks

I am sorry to hear about this. Please open AVG -> Internet Security -> Menu -> Settings -> Components -> Firewall -> Customize -> Network Profiles -> Change the network profiles from Public to Private and click OK to save changes.
Again, open AVG -> Internet Security -> Menu -> Settings -> Components -> Firewall -> Customize ->Profiles->System Rules->Enable the 'Allow windows file and printer sharing', enable the 'Allow remote desktop connections to this computer' and also enable the 'Allow stealth mode for public networks'. Then click OK to save changes and check if websites works fine.
Thank you.

William McKenzie I/0 10016 error that fills system with warning and error messages
Is their any software that I can purchase to clear 10066. I have AVG Ultimate, but I don't think it recognizes it. The manual fix appears to be very complex.

How to remove AVG 2017 menu items from Windows context menu?
I would like to remove AVG 2017 context menu items because they make the context menu too wide in Russian language. The menu items I currently have are "Scan ... with AVG" and "Shred... with AVG". On the internet I found instructions for AVG 2016, but I can't find such settings in AVG 2017 (AVG Antivirus Free version 17.5.3022). The methods of older versions don't work either, because there doesn't seem to be avgse.dll in AVG installation anymore.
Can you provide the steps on how to remove AVG context menu items for the recent version of AVG?

Bob Wing AVG Zen Removal
I am having trouble removing AVG Zen or control. It would not uninstall using windows uninstaller so I tried the removal tool. It comes up with a xywidget debug message and nothing uninstalls. Something about redundant recycling. Anyone know is they make a better removal tool or special one for Zen? Help would be greatly appreciated.

To view the scan report, please follow the path " C:ProgramDataAvgAntivirus report".
