This normally means that your postgresql service is not running.
I would at first try to reboot the computer.

I just installed the free AVG antivirus program and it says that this is most likely the problem so I should uninstall it. I used to have Norton but my subscription expired and I did uninstall it. Will PostgreSQL not work with any other antivisrus protection? I am just worried about uninstalling the AVG and not having any. Thank you.

You can reinstall it when postgresql is running and see what happens.
