Problem with AVG Free 8, Vista Home Premium SP1 and IE7

[Christopher]

I already completely uninstalled AVG 8.0 and reinstalled without the Toolbar

and Web Features. No difference.

My error was due to the fact that I was printing to a networked printer

and not a locally attached printer. For some reason, network printers

do work with IE7 and AVG 8.0 Free.

As I added later, turning off UAC seems the only work-around.

actually avg 8.0 free should have nothing to do with printing or network

printing

if you were using avg 8.0 with firewall then you might have to add the

printer to the firewall settings

I am running AVG without the tool bar.

You can reinstall the program but this time do it as a repair and uncheck

the tool bar option

But this is a known issue with AVG 8.0. Refer to the AVG user forums for

more information.
