For some reason, when ever avg runs it's scheduled scan, I get a blue screen a couple of minutes later and the machine restarts. I can run a manual scan with avg no problem. This just started 2 day ago updating with the latest windows updates. I did a google search and found out where to find the blue screen log. After I find it, I'm completely lost with reading them. Here is the error code(s) that I get: (Reliability Monitor) 0x0000008e (0xc0000005, 0x8209469a, 0xac54f880, 0x00000000) (Problem Reports and Solutions) Problem signature Problem Event Name: BlueScreen OS Version: 6.0.6002.2.2.0.256.1 Locale ID: 1033 Files that help describe the problem (some files may no longer be available) Mini021011-01.dmp sysdata.xml Version.txt View a temporary copy of these files Warning: If a virus or other security threat caused the problem, opening a copy of the files could harm your computer.

I disabled scheduled scan and re-downloaded the latest update. Did manual scans for the past two days and then tried re-enabling scheduled scan today and so far it is working now, no blue screens and no crashing. Maybe avg accendently created a bug in one their updates. I haven't received any new updates from ms so far.
Hi I just Downloaded AVG AntiVirus Free Edition 2011. Can you please tell me if I downloaded the right anti virus for my PC. I have some hesitation on my mind. Thank you.
avg free is a good anti virus, just make sure to keep it up to date with the updates and you should be good to go.
