I want to start out by saying this…I DO NOT HAVE AND NEVER WILL HAVE AVAST on my computer… but yet there it is. There is nothing on my uninstall list for it, not in my google extensions, I even searched my computer and found nothing by clicking Start and typing in Avast. I am in Control Panel\System and Security\Windows Firewall. I click Advanced Settings on the right and also, same message…“These setting are being managed by vendor application Avast Free Antivirus” I want this off my computer.
I think I figured it out… Avast bought AVG? Well, bye bye AVG then. Sorry.
What makes you want to uninstall AVG? AVG has more powerful protection than before, faster signature updates, lighter engine and a special method for emergency updating it in case of bugs. Plus it has a better beta testing phase. And in my opinion a better interface than before. :
This is because they haven’t simply pushed Avast in place of AVG, they have combined their teams and technologies they had.
