Vista not recognising AV installed

[andybird123]

Hi guys,
I'm having to re-instate one of our old sales guys laptops to give to the new guy and whatever the previous guy did to it, it now won't recognise that it has AVG installed (and keeps coming up with the red X on the taskbar)

anyone know how to get windows to recognise that it has a valid AV package installed

I have already tried uninstalling and re-installing AVG to no avail

cheers,

Andy

just have it ignore the antivirus

Just change the settings in Security center to ignore about AV.
OR
Uninstall AVG completely & Install AVIRA Antivir, which is also free, far better than AVG.
