hi!
i have AVG 7.5 professional edition installed on ny comp, im running vista
home premium and lately every time i start my pc i get a security alert
informing me that avg is turned off , yet according to every thing else it
appears to be on. it seems to update itself ok too. why is it doing this,
anyone know?

If the Windows Security Center is complaining about finding no
anti-virus protection at all, then maybe it just doesn't recognize AVG
and you need to tell it to not monitor anti-virus protection.

Then I agree with the other posters' replies: uninstall AVG, reboot,
then reinstall AVG.
