Hi Dan,

 

Found this by searching for "Remove Avast" in Google.  And it's from Avast
themselves, so should be exactly what you need.

Subject: [guispeak] Problem Removing Avast

 

I decided to put Avast on one of my machines after the AVG free bin file
problem.

 

Now I've decided to reinstall AVG free after removing Avast.  , I cannot,
under any circumstances, remove this program from my system and I can't stop
it from running.

 

When I shut all the Avast components down and tried uninstalling it, I got
an error message.  I then tried manually removing the program, including all
the files in the application data folders.  Everything went but the program
files folder and the registry key.

 

I'm pretty good at doing this sort of thing; so I'm really stumped.  Any
help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks.
