Unable to re-install Avast. - Includes log dump

I needed to uninstall Avast to test a problem with my Firewall (Avast wasn’t the problem ;D)

I used the Avast Cleaner to make sure there were no remnants or ghosts.

I am unable to install Avast after several tries, I keep getting this (from log):

Any help would be appreciated

Try OpenDNS or GoogleDNS.

Have no idea what changing my default DNS would do but tested it with the same results, unable to install Avast.

Server: google-public-dns-a.google.com
Address: 8.8.8.8

Reset my DNS to what it was after testing.

Here’s the log (filtered for errors only).
