My husband has Win 98 and had AVG (free) anti-virus in it, but had the old
(7.1) version. We've been trying to download their current version (7.5)
and twice it got almost finished (takes a LONG time, he has dial-up) and
there was a problem and it quit. Does anyone know if perhaps that version
of AVG isn't compatible with Win 98? Thanks for any help or suggestions

I haven't updated mine either (still using 7.1) and with Window98SE. But
I'm guessing that the new version is still compatible with Win98SE unless
(on their site) it says it isn't. What was the EXACT problem or error
message??

Another idea you might want to try is to download the full AVG program to a
separate location on the hard drive and install it from there (rather than
letting it be installed as an "update" version).

An even cleaner solution might be to uninstall AVG first, reboot, and then
install the new version (the new complete version, not an update version to
an existing one).
