YOU DELETED YOUR AVG ANTIVIRUS ?? Why in the world would you do a thing like that ?
Unless you are NOT turning off the Internet when you play a single SH4 game. The antivirus ( any antivirus ) when you turn off the Internet and shut off ( temporarily ) everything running in the background that is NOT necessarily to run while you play SH4 ( or any offline game ) will not interfere with the simulation.
Get a program like "enditall" ( there are others like it ) and it will do the turning off of what is not needed in order for the game to run cleaner.
Get "Enditall" here:

(Enditall is the second line down on left of page at 393kb, and it is also getting scarce on the web for FREE.)
When you are through playing just reboot and everything that is supposed to be running will be running including AVG or whatever antivirus program installed.
Maybe I misunderstood you but it does sound like you play SH4 while on the Internet. Some people do not know how to shut down the Internet and others think it must be on all the time, others while they are playing a non online game JUST MUST have the email going in the background or playing while reading on subsim. Worst thing in the world to do unless you don't mind having a slow computer game and crashing all the time.
IF you meant that you did really delete your antivirus from your hard drive, you really need to reinstall or guess whats going to happen to your computer while on the Internet. You are bound to download sometime and that's when the NO-NO's sometimes arrive.
Ok rant is over

I hope SH4 runs a lot smoother for you.
