Well, my (IE-stripped) Win2K hibernates fine running AVG-Free (7.0 I
think) & wifi LAN. (The other -full- Win2K on the Lib runs McAfee.)
I suppose your problem has little to do with AVG-Free.
Win2K hibernation can be hampered by hardware drivers which do not
properly shut down the HW before and reinitialize it after hibernation.
The NT driver for the L10/L110 Neomagic video is a fine example.
In your case, I'd suggest there's something wrong with your network
drivers or network connections ("WAN"). The fact that uninstalling AVG
does not help is a clear indication of this.
