AVG8 - killing processes

Does anyone know how to shut down the AVG8 processes?

I like to shut down (after yanking the internet cable) my AV and other unnecessary processes before starting up SH3 in order to max out available RAM.

I've now gone back to AVG7.5 (which turns out is supported until end of the year), 'cause I just can't shut down the AVG8 processes (which incidentally have a much bigger RAM footprint than 7.5).

The little nasties are avgrsx.exe, avgemc.exe, avgwdsvc.exe.

I huff, and I puff, but blow as I may, they won't go away. Or, esp in the case of rsx, it comes back like an unwanted direct marketing call.

I also use FSAutostart, but the AVG8 processes don't even show up in the FSA list.
