BAD,BAD, behavior on the part of AVG. Convinced me to use a different virus protection. If you have tried to access MS SP3 though a search you will find everybody is into this game.

Toolbar option but AVG disregarded my wish and installed the bar anyway.This has never happened to me before (ever) and I am giving serious consideration to removing AVG altogether. How can I place my trust in a company (AVG) that that so flagrantly disrespects my choice in the name of profit seeking. I am an experienced Internet surfer and I studiously unticked the Yahoo!

By doing what you suggested (going to Int. Options, Advanced, and clicking Reset) completely disable my IE browser? Will I have to reinstall that? I just want to get rid of the stupid AVG/Yahoo toolbar, but I don't want "Resetting" things to mess with the actual browser or my Google toolbar (that toolbar doesn't slow me down). Please advise - I'm not at all technical. Thank you. Malwarekilla or someone else…I have the same issue. By doing what you suggested (going to Int.
