The free version keeps prompting me to upgrade to the paid version.

How can I stop the reminder?

Thanks

Hello lablover,

Free version can occasionally display upgrade popup windows offering you full version of AVG.
There is no official way to stop these prompts.

Could you describe how often are you prompted to purchase full version? If possible, provide us with screenshot of the prompts.

Thank you

The prompt to update occurs every few days. It gives you the option to be reminded later, which I select.

I want the free version, NOT the paid for version; especially after some of the negative comments I read on this board.

There are other free products available. Perhaps I should try them.
