Basically, a first time install of AVG 7 will have default
permissions. \Program Files\Grisoft\AVG Free has inherited
permissions from \Program Files. This is preferred, because lower
privileged accounts can't damage it.
Once any files are updated, the permissions are changed to
"Everyone" with "Full Control" on the updated files, and will change
the owner to whomever is logged in. Even limited users become
owners. That does not stop at \Program Files\Grisoft\AVG Free, it
will even do that to AVG's drivers in %windir%\system32\drivers.
