AVG

GO TO START>>SETTINGS>>CONTROL PANEL>>ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMMS

REMOVE AVG FROM THERE

DO NOT RESTART

GO TO THE FOLDER WHERE YOU SAVED AVG .....REMOVE IT

NOW RESTART YOUR PC AND AGAIN INSTALL IN A NEW FOLDER WITH DIFFERENT NAME THAN EARLIER

IF YOU HAVEN'T NOTICED THERE ARE SOME DLL FILES LEFT SAVED IN THE FOLDER WHERE YOU INSTALLED AVG EVEN AFTER UNINSTALLATION OF AVG ...........DELETE ALL OF THEM AND THEN RESTART AND REINSTALL

Try to re-downlod the installation file and try again. Maybe that might help as the error says "AVG Installation Damaged....."

I assume you re using the latest version of AVG i.e. AVG 7 and not AVG 6 thats support was discontinued on 31st Dec 2004, right?

Do u do anything after installing AVG that causes the problem?

Maybe a update or something like that ?

There is something which is damaging the internal virus database.
Download and run McAfee Stinger.

Also, post the HijackThis log file.

Are you by any chance using a dual-boot system with both OS'es in the same partition, with AVG installed in the same default directory for both OS'es ?

Even if you have the OS'es in diff partitions, if you happen to install AVG in the same directory, say C:\Program Files\Grisoft\AVG Free, it will probably cause the problem you stated every time you switch OS'es.

I have not taken the time to trace the source of the problem yet, but it's probably that AVG overwrites certain file(s) each time it does a scan.
