Ashampoo firewall used normally but it makes no difference if switched off.

Ashampoo is the better of the two you listed so that is what I'd suggest you use unless you don't like it for some reason. Also, when enabling/disabling a firewall always follow that with a reboot or in some cases your action will not be "active". Al
Tech Support Guy, we highly recommend that you visit our Guide for New Members. Can't Install AVG 8.0 Free Edition Discussion in 'General Security' started by TaintedTulip, Feb 16, 2009. Thread Status: Not open for further replies. Advertisement TaintedTulip Thread Starter Joined: Feb 16, 2009 Messages: 2 Hi all, I have had AVG Free installed for 6-8 months. A few weeks ago it began failing to connect to the update server and quoting an "invalid update control CTF file", so I finally decided to uninstall and https://forums.avg.com/us-en/avg-forums?sec=thread&act=show&id=92235 then reinstall avg a week ago. I downloaded the installation file, but every time I tried to install I got the following errors: Error: Action failed for file avgtdix.sys: starting service.... Error 0x80070014 Rollback: Warning: Action failed for directory Log: removing directory.... Error 0x80070091 My internet connection is working for everything else, I haven't installed any other software that might be blocking it, and https://forums.techguy.org/threads/cant-install-avg-8-0-free-edition.801228/ as far as I can tell there isn't anything else that should be causing problems. I have scanned my computer with ad-aware which came up clean, then scanned with spybot and after removing some problems there and attempting to install AVG again only got: Local machine: installation failed Installation: Error: Action failed for file avgtdix.sys: starting service.... Error 0x80070014 I scan my computer regularly with AVG, Ad-Aware and Spybot S & D, so it is generally pretty bug free. What could the problem be?

Do you have a Firewall? perfume, Feb 16, 2009 #2 TaintedTulip Thread Starter Joined: Feb 16, 2009 Messages: 2 Thank you! I only have a stock standard firewall that came with the OS (Windows Firewall) which was in place the first time I installed AVG. I have tried turning it off while installing AVG, but it didn't make a difference.
