Hi!! I am Dev.I installed avast professional edition 2 days back.It worked well that day but the next day it started giving problem.The computer started working very slow.Add or remove program file is also not opening so, I tried to delete some of the programs of avast.I also downloaded uninstall file but that is also not opening in my PC.I am using XP.
Please suggest me how to remove avast.
Plzzzzzzz
I think the best will be installing avast at the same folder you did first time, boot and then uninstall it, and boot again.
It’s not safe to remove (delete) programs files directly :-\
divesh,
The “slow” computer is usually caused by either a virus or spyware. I don’t like the idea that the Add/Remove dialog did not open. This is indicative of a problem within the OS.
Do you have Adaware or Spybot S/D installed? (These are antispyware scanners)
If so, start in Safe Mode, see if you can open up the A/R window and then uninstall Avast. Then run a spyware scan.
Take care of whatever shows, then reboot the computer.
Reinstall Avast and run a full virus scan. Remove any viri or send to the Chest.
