Re: AVG Free Forum

You used the link in the confirmation email to activate *and* login for
the first time?

I also just read your second post stating the error message you
received...

IMO it is because the link is not being completely read -

*'Copy and paste' the link in it's entirety into your browser's address
bar.

This sometimes happens when the link is subject to line-wrap and is not
read from beginning to end.

The error message stating that the data in the activation link was
"incomplete" suggests to me that this is the case.

Thanks for your reply.
Even though the 'old' forum is read-only now. I am still able to
log-in
with my username and password.

I also registered for the 'new forum' and entered a valid email
address and
received the email 'confirmation' link that said my account was now
'activated' but the error message stated in my initial post came up
and it
would not let me go 'into' the forum.

I tried registering and logging in - no problems.

There may possible be an issue with the older version of the forum
being
phased-out and it's read-only now and will be closed soon.

I registered for the "new" version, you need a valid email address.

I received the 'Confirmation Email' within one minute. Clicked on
the
link within and logged in to the site.

There is a warning on sending of this email - that if the link is NOT
clicked on to 'Activate' the account - it will remain 'locked'.

I don't know if any of this is relevant to you?

Here is the link I used to register for the new version forum :

https://secure.avg.com/ww.avg-free-forum-register

....good luck!

PS.. If you can 'read' the forums site - I posted a new thread to it
titled "Problems logging into forum" :

I have AVG 8.5 [free] and it is (has been) working just fine!

I don't get "pop-ups" I don't know what pop-ups you're talking
about?

I have used AVG for the past year with no problems. Not only no
problems, but it has definitely saved me and my PC from a number
of
virus attacks.

I also used AVG 6.0 from 02 - 05 with same excellent results.

I think AVG [free] is brilliant for people with a major cash-flow
"situation"!

Same situation here. I give up. After getting those annoying
pop
up
ads everyday and finding that they will continue for a month, I
will
now look for a new anitvirus.
If there was ever a chance that I would get an AVG upgrade, the
pop up
ads removed the possibility forever.
Have a nice day.

I tried the AVG Forum last weekend. Despite obtaing new
passwords
I
could not log on. I have tried in the past and have got the
same
result.
It is a long time since I have succeeded in logging on.

I have no idea what the problem is and cannot ask AVG for an
explanation. The forum is the only support available for users
of
AVG
8.5 Free.
Glad that y'all do not have the pop ups, Tim
They are ads for a buy now ID add on to the basic free 8.5 AVG
According to the AVG forum, an AVG manager posted a notice that
the
ads will pop up for 4 days each week for a month.
I know of several other AVG users here in the states who are
experiencing the same annoyances.
Have anice day
