Subject: TSGL: AVG Anti-Spyware Locks Up PC Occasionally???

Anyone else who's using the AVG Free Anti-Spyware product having 
problems with the updates occasionally locking up your pc when you do a 
scan??  It's kinda weird, after doing an update, in about 1 out of every 
3 or 4 times when I start to do either a Complete System Scan or Fast 
System Scan, my desktop will lock up.  I mean totally lock up, I have to 
do a power down and cold reboot to start it up again.  It almost always 
happens within the first 1-2 seconds after I click on either the 
Complete System Scan or Fast System Scan.  I think it starts out 
scanning Memory so I assume someone there is causing the lockup.  
Sometimes when I reboot and try the scan again, it will run OK.  Today I 
tried it four times and it locked up each time.

My desktop is an HP Pavillion running XP Home, 512 memory.  I have never 
had the problem occur when running the AVG AS product on my laptop, 
which is also an HP running XP Home and 512 memory. 
Any thoughts welcome.
