Just so you know, I’m seeing your site fine — so it definitely seems like a problem on your end with your antivirus software.

You might check the AVG forums (and you could try a manual update), and/or download a different antivirus program (I’ve happily used Avira for years, though I used to use AVG until I started having trouble with it), turn off the AVG, install the new program and see if your problem remains.

You need to add custom css to remove the div for the menu, but not every theme will identify the menu in the same way, so there’s no way to be sure the same custom css will work for every theme.

However, I’d get a plugin like My Custom CSS, find the css code that controls the menu in your theme (let’s say it’s called #menu1) and give it a “display: none;” — like this:

#menu1 {display:none;}

If you change the theme, the menu might now be called something like #navbar, so you have to find the proper part of the css again, and then change your custom css to:

#navbar {display:none;}

But I’m not an expert, so perhaps you will get better advice than this!

If you haven’t already tried this, add it in HTML view (instead of “Visual”) — and then if you need to edit anything on the post and republish, stick with the HTML view.

Perhaps this will help: How to Customize the WordPress Admin Area

Also, to be clear: I’m using the standard WordPress links widget… the Display Widgets plugin just allows me to choose where the widgets appear.

Yay! That did it; thank you!
