Hi All,

Today I noticed while doing my weekly AVG virus file update that it said my 
system was not fully protected. Well, a week ago it said that it was! 
Obviously something changed.

Now there is a "fix" button to fully protect my system. Do I 'dare' press 
it? Will it just enable the full protection routines of AVG 2012 or 'erase' 
some files? The last thing I want to do is accidentally delete any files!

The only thing on this computer that could be dangerous, but in this case is 
not, are three root keys. AVG 2012 has a bug that sees old program files as 
'root keys', even though they are not! No viruses of any kind. Yes, I run a 
complete HD file scan of all files every week!

So what do I do? Press the 'fix' button to restore full protection? Or leave 
things alone?

Thanks.
