I have being using AVG Anti-Virus Free for quite some time (version

desktop pushing the upgrade to AVG Internet Security. Is there anyway
in AVG Anti-Virus Free to turn off this pop-up (it happens every day).


Nag screens are typical for "free" AV software, and if you read the
license and terms, there is probably a mention of this. Your choices are
to purchase the paid version, look for a free AV that does not behave
this way, or stop using AV software.
