To begin, simply insert the CD and follow the on screen instructions.  The same software can also be downloaded and installed from the AVG website.  Once installed, you will find that you have a fully working version of the software with a 30 day trial period.

Now you need to license the product.  When you purchased the product you will have been issued with an AVG SALES NUMBER.  What you need to do is to convert this sales number into a LICENSE CODE.

You should visit the AVG website at avg.co.uk  Near the bottom of the page you should click on the link that says Register AVG.  You should now register the product by entering your AVG SALES NUMBER and your personal details.  Once done you will be issued with your LICENSE NUMBER.  This will be displayed on screen and sent to you by email.

If you get a message telling you that your Sales Number is invalid then you need to make sure that you have typed it correctly.  The most common mistake is with the Internet Security product.  You should note that the code begins 80I (that’s capital I for India).  It is often mistaken for a number 1 (one) or lower case L.  It is an I and it stands for Internet Security!

If you experience any further issues then please post your experiences here and I will make sure that readers are updated.
