Recently I installed AVG 2012 and since then I can’t browse internet using Google Chrome, but Mozilla Firefox is working just perfect. Why is AVG 2012 blocking chrome? Does anybody know the reason and how to resolve this issue? Any kind of help would be appreciated regarding this.

Hello Fern

This problem has been experienced by many users and its quite a new problem. Apparently, there areconflicts between Chrome and AVG's Resident Shield or Identity Protection.

If you deactivate those, Chrome should work fine, though it's not recommended. But the developers at AVG are working towards solving this issue and hopefully you may get some solution after some time.

Happy Computing 🙂
