@OP
That's because you installed the 30-day trial of AVG Internet Security rather than the free version AVG Anti-Virus.

Un-install AVG - Go to C-net and no where else! Look for the totally free version. They have several and you want FREE.
Careful now ok? Down load but do NOT install without following my steps SUPER SLOW VERY SLOW OK
1: C-net will attempt to give YOU yes YOU for Free SOMETHING - They have a lot of Somethings - Do not pay any attention to the Somethings - ALWAYS SAY DECLINE - CLICK ON DECLINE
2:The next step also contains an attempt to give you a goodie for FREE - Trust me no matter wot it is EVEN if it looks good? Do not even attempt to read wot that shit is cause its SHIT
HIT DECLINE
KEEP Hitting Decline and the last step will let you install AVG without any added garbage BUT PLEASE watch it Install and IF as with FLASH - You see any thing being installed along with AVG kill the Install because you messed UP
Just start over and go real slow
NEVER EVER Use Softapedia (sp) They will sneak in the same shit C-net tries to get you to say Accept to
ONE LAST CRITICAL Thing - IF you ever have a problem with AVG and its wot I recommend to all the Surfers still in school around me and dance friends on low income - NEVER EVER NOT ONCE accept their help by using the 800 telco number - THEY Will ask you permission to take over your computer and look inside yours and then tell you they found a virus that needs to be removed and only THEY can do it via remote control.
If you decline to pay way over $100 like say $149 or $175 and you decline they disconnect and say good by and leave you with Phone or Tablet or PC - In a useless state because they have dropped off a gift you cannot un-install.

I am so grrrrrrrrr stupid dumb as fuck stupid 2nite - at club to dance 15 miles away with pager because I had2 (they will pay through nose4) Pager goes off about 30 mins ago with 1/5 of a GEO Satellite in shut down mode. NOT tragic because there is a full back up that switches in and all appears fyne to users on Planet Earth - That auto protect shut down is totally my fault - wayyyyy to hard to splain wot I did wrong and will have to write a multipage report to Insurance company with apology ...I am still going to bill them for the time!!
Now have to wait 30 mins exactly after the reset command to see it a timer inside the bird resets itself and then can go back to the club
AVG SO I looked just to be sure - As you can see they only offer to options on the AVG official web page http://www.avg.com/ Buy cost $39.99 and the free 30 day trial
Dig deeper into Google and low and behold is this page http://free.avg.com/us-en/free-antivirus-download
Company sure does NOT have some shit together. The total free is available and the pay version is is is what the fuck $54.99 Oh wait LOLOLOL
Click on the Download Free and AVG redirects to C-Net and it splashes with special offer full price $31.99
Grrrrrr more shit - Middle of C-Net page leads you to believe the only free way is to go co-pay and ya all just have to lookC ALL kinds of BS offers as ride along with download
http://download.cnet.com/AVG-AntiVirus-Free-2015/3055-2239_4-10320142.html?part=dl-avg_free_us&tag=pdl-redir
So IF you try to by pass all that junk - on the page is a Download button BUTTTTTTT it leads to an added package they want you to have to er help your computer
Out of tyme need to get back to club and Satellite just said to me a ok re the timer inside

Very Legit. Very good...more updates then others.
NEVER call the Help 800 number. Same scam as AVG. Any problems with, just un-install and start over.

Obviously AVG is an unserious fraud company who partners with cnet to make money on the free version through the bundled downloads. Bundled downloads tend to be insecure at best and lead to vulnerabilities which AVG takes advantage of by suggesting people upgrade to the paid version in order to take care of those problems.
