avast 8 failed installation

i downloaded avast from [download.com,filehippo.com] but none of em work

it says

‘Error reading product data from “C:\Program Files\AVAST Software\Avast\setup\part-setup_ais-5c2.vpx”.Setup cannot continue’

alrite i tried downloading the same file-
from a different pc
disabling download manager
trying safe mode

i also dont have any other security software installed
im using windows 7 64bit
i recently didnt make any(absolutely any) changes to my pc,neither hardware or software

another trouble i was having with avast was that a few days back it started to fail auto updating itself.i dunno y,it’s still failing

and if i uninstall avast first , then im pretty sure ill be locked off forever and wouldnt be able to install it
anymore.

thanx

you can use the v8 removal tool first: www.avast.com/uninstall-utility

and then try a clean install…it must not lock out…

haha shit man i left out the most obvious option that shouldve been performed at first

nevermind,it did work

thanx,thread closed.

Your Most Welcome!! I know how frustrating it is ;D
