1270069 2012-04-14 21:58:00 Hi Folks,
This is really odd Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and AVG Security have all stopped working. On our Laptop we run windows vista home premium SP2. No matter what we have tried we cannot get them working. AVG cannot enter it's interface. In the security centre it says AVG is runng though. When ever we try to use those programs a window comes up and says that the program has stopped working, after clicking the shortcut/exe. We have tried to uninstall Chrome and Firefox then fresh download and reinstal them without success.
Thanks again guys

1270071 2012-04-14 22:20:00 I'll use IObit uninstaller....started on AVG with the powerfull scan. ChazTheGeek (16619)
1270072 2012-04-15 05:51:00 Don't know if it's the same - but I've lost the ability to use anything but the simplified HTML version of GMail in either Chrome or Firefox . Not gonna try IE since I hate it somewhat passionately .

I can see that there is mail in the GMail INBOX - but I cannot access it in anything but Chrome and Chrome Canary-build .

I ran a few scans, CCleaner, MSE, HJT and nothing out of the ordinary is reporting .

I rebooted and used the HTTPS version and the Mobil versions and they can all render in simplified HTML .

Thoughts? :confused:

XP here with MSE and all the latest updates and Hotfixes from last Tuesday . Could this be a vid driver or site rendering update problem?

Cheers :)
