Oh yea baby! I got the fix for AVG! I'll list the Steps you need to take to let it run Pirates.

Starting Out:

1. Open AVG to the System Overview.
2. Go to "Tools > Advanced Settings".
3. Look for "PUP Exceptions" and Open It.
4. Click "Add Exception". When it brings up the little box asking for the file path, enter "C:\Program Files\Disney\Disney Online\PiratesOnline\Launcher1.exe".
5. Let it register where the file is located, then click ok and apply.
6. Now stay in the Advanced settings menu and go to "Resident Shield > Exceptions"
7. Click "Add Path" and navigate it to "C:\Program Files\Disney\Disney Online\PiratesOnline\"
8. Click apply, and attempt to open Pirates Online! It should open up from your Desktop. If the desktop button does not work, go to, Start > All Programs > Disney Pirates Of The Caribbean > Pirates Of The Caribbean Online.

So there you have it. That's how you Configure AVG to Work with Pirates Online.

Sorry it took so long, but those Disney Live Support People are bad...

^^Give that man a Ceee-gar! I had AVG anti-virus pop-up with a nice red window screaming trojan horse found with launcher.exe last night!!
Initially I was like, aw man your joking, after some super-antispyware scanning, there was no trojan found?
Confused I was, clicked on update my AVG, apparently all was well.
Still had trojan window message though. Trolled through here last night and found solution. The e-mail from AVG was not helpful as it stated detection was correct but could've been a false positive!!
^Followed Ethan's bit above and it solved the problem instantly!
Shame the scanning and trolling took so long, by the time it was fixed it was midnight! Another late gaming session took place needless to say though!

This is the solution if you are having an issue with AVG blocking you because of a Trojan Virus.

How do I do this if I already unistalled pirates and it won't let me fully reinstall the game? It installs halfway, virus pops up, then gives me an icon but it will not run.
