I've been trying to uninstall the AVG Free 7.5 virus checker from my computer in order to replace it with version 8. I'm getting the error message

Actionfailed for filesetup.exe:createbackup...
Access is denied (5)%DESTINJATION%=c:\program files\grisoft\avgfree\setup.exe.install_backup",%SOURCE%="C:\program files\grisoft\AVGFree\setup.exe"

The message comes up using both the AVG uninstaller and the one in control panel.

The operating system is Windows 98 and I have Spybot and ZoneAlarm operating

AVG 8.0 won't install, presumably because it can't get rid of 7.5 either

Can you help? Best Wishes, Notverygoodatthis.

Sorted out. Sorry to have bothered you. Ran the repair function and then removed it. Wish I hadn't as version 8 doesn't run on Windows 98. Heigh ho.
