In case you are using some third party firewall or a software that is checking network traffic (e.g. content filters, parental control, etc.), you need to allow communication of the following AVG Free processes to allow its full functionality:
- avgam.exe
- avgcmgr.exe
- avgemc.exe
- avgiproxy.exe
- avgnsx.exe
- avgtray.exe
- avgui.exe
- avgupd.exe
- avgwdsvc.exe
In some programs, you might need to specify the list of 'safe' Internet addresses to prevent limited or blocked access of AVG to the update servers. In such case, please allow the following servers:
- guru.avg.com
- guru1.grisoft.cz
- guru2.grisoft.cz
- guru3.grisoft.cz
- downloadfree.avg.com
- update.avgfree.com
- bguru.avg.cz
