Dear Diane, and dear all,

I followed Thomas's advice and found the free version. The direct link for 
it - to save time - is

http://free.grisoft.com/doc/avg-anti-virus-free/lng/us/tpl/v5

I have since downloaded the upgrade (yes, free), and installed it. When 
running it, if you have 7.1 already installed, select "repair" in the 
installation wizard options. Mine now works perfectly (as it used to 
before! I'm another very satisfied user of AVG).

Good luck -  cheers,
