I installed this on my main programming system: Intel P4 1gb (yes I know, old but good) XPPro SP2. Matrox 4 display, ATI 2 display (6 total displays). Running fine for years until I installed AVG 8.0. After that, occasionally, it would reset (you know, like you have to reset Windows occasionally for some stupid reason??), it would come up and look normal, but the task bar and desktop icons would never appear. Sometimes I could CTRL-ALT-DEL (you know, like you have to reset Windows occasionally for some stupid reason??) and get the reset menu. To get it to run, I had to go to safe mode, restore from my Acronis backup or other waste of the day. Finally, I decided to uninstall any new programs and files. When I uninstalled AVG 8.0, the problem went away. Thanks to someone on this list, I installed AVAST and have not had a problem since. When the contract runs out on my AVG server version (not free), I am going to replace it with AVAST. From this time on, I am going to recommend AVAST. Also, I am happy to get rid of the stupid popups that AVG 8.0 forces you to look at.
