Hello all

I am unable to update to the latest version of AVG 7.5 from 7.1, I have now uninstalled 7.1 and removed all the files and folders, including all traces from the registry(unless I have missed something).

Here is the error;

Local machine: installation failed
Installation:
Error: Action failed for registry key HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\AVG7Uninstall\Features: creating registry key....
Access is denied. (5)

Any ideas anyone?

I am running windows XP Pro.

Dean
