My question is still outstanding. Can someone give me an answer?

on boot up aballon says 'your computer might be at risk. antivirus software
might not be installed. click balloon to fix this problem.

a click produces the Security Center which says Virus protection NOT FOUND

The AVG Congtrol Center shows that everything is up and running and the
internal virus database is only one day old.
