i kept forgetting peps still use windowsme and 98 so heres instructions on makeing a rescue disk for these folks plus winxp and 2000 users

little known fact that many AVG users dont know or never use is what is called rescue disk...this neat little tool comes in handy for the unable to delete/move to vault infections...so needless to say its a must to have and any average user can do it.so here are the steps u will need 3 1.44mb floppy disk to make rescue disk.

1. insert 1 floppy disk into drive..click on my computer....right click on drive A:,,click format..and checkbox create ms-dos disk.(win98,me) users do same but checkbox copying system files.


2. once step 1. is done open avg and click service, and create rescue disk ...let it go thru process and it takes 3 1.44mb floppys.


3. once step 2 is done....insert disk 1 and restart computer.....then follow instructions avg with boot up in ms-dos mode and do a scan..this tool was made just for infections that run when windows does or boots up once you sign onto windows.


if u find this information helpful and/or didnt know about this tool just post as am all about helping peps combat this stuff..and for any tips or need advice on tweaking up avg just email me

goodluck.
