Thanks, though it directs me to < http://free.avg.com/download >
(to download the installer for AVG Ver 8.0.)
Will fire up the Win98 box and give it a go.

Thanks again, (from the Win98 box).
I baulked at the Ver 8.0 installer, in case it auto removed 7.5 and buggered
up a ver 8.0 install.

I found that I had saved the original Ver 7.5 installer from 2006 and used
that.
Selecting "uninstall" worked OK.

try to download avg remover and install it then try remove avg from this software it will resolve your issue
