With reference to AVG 7.0 Free Edition:

[http://free.grisoft.com/freeweb.php/doc/1/lng/us/tpl/v5]

"Click here to upgrade your current AVG Free to the New AVG Free Edition! Your current AVG Free Edition will be uninstalled during the installation process of the New AVG Free Edition."

Although this statement appears at the AVG [Grisoft] website is it best to manually uninstall AVG 6.0 before installing AVG 7.0?

I have found with the new addition that it put no shortcut in the start menu, I deleted my desktop item & after stopping virus protection from the tool tray could only reactivate from the file in program files or reboot. If like me you prefer a clean desktop drag the icon into the start menu before deleting from the desktop.

I also found the box standard scan to take 1.5 hours compared to version 6s 29 mins.
