How did you manage to uninstall it partially? It's in the add/remove programs

Well I suggest you reinstall it and then uninstall it via the control panel....You can't (usually) uninstall a program just by deleting the files like that.

Why on earth would want to un install it anyway?, it's a really good anti virus, sounds like you have other issues, take it to a teckkie.

I use AVG8 on all my systems, Including my Web PC and 5 Game server PC's. Very good IMHO

Use crapcleaner to uninstall things and clean after up the regestry with it ccleaner is found on www.filehippo.com dont run 2 antivirus at the same time antivir wont work right if avgcrap is still installed and not propper whiped with ccleaner.

Antivir and avast are far better then avgsux avg is and always was the worst free antivirus. and is installed by people who fix pc so they get more work later on. Antivir wont scan e-mails on the free version but it will find trojans virus that avg will miss. Also get other protection like spywareblaster from the filehippo site. I used to have adaware also on my winblows but i no longer use winblows mutch as i cant be botherd with updating all them protection programs that it needs to be even remotly save.

Intrade Watch it, As that is a straight LIE. I install AVG as it' Good, Not for more work later on,. Say that gain and I will get the Law involved. You are a one eyed dick when it comes to AVG as you haven't used it since 2003

Check out Majorgeeks.comI think I remember reading something there about how to completely uninstall some of this freeware which doesn't always uninstall cleanly. Hope it helps.
