End of Support for AVG 7.5

Please be informed, as of April 30, 2009, older versions of Windows operating systems (Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT/Windows NT Server, Windows Me) no longer support  AVG 7.5.

The end of support for older versions of Windows operating systems is due to the fact that the new AVG scanning engine and on-access scanner, as well as the whole AVG technology cannot work on older operating systems. Older operating systems are insecure and have not been maintained by the vendor for several years, more importantly these systems do not include features and functionality that is necessary for the proper detection and removal of malware. For the above reasons we cannot guarantee sufficient protection of the mentioned operating systems.

Please note that AVG Technologies reserves the right to discontinue the support provided that AVG Technologies informs thereof 15 days prior to the effective date on its website.

We recommend that you upgrade to a more secure operating system or acquire a new computer with the latest operating system software installed.
