Hiā¦
You didnāt mention what operating system youāre using. If Windows Vista, itās integrated into the OS itself and canāt be easily uninstalled. However, you can disable it using the instructions hereā¦
If youāre using Windows XP, I believe you can uninstall it from āAdd/Remove Programsā in the Control Panel. 
Best Regardsā¦

I like making things better.
still unable to understand why norton is so poor and slow and how can avast be so good and fast??That's because Norton is like the Titanic that was thought to be unsinkable and was built from inferior steel and building methods while Avast! is like a modern destroyer with modern steel and better building methods.
I do not have the luxury of being able to afford a Vista capable system at this time.

ifferentThis may be a different topic, but I can not find how to open a new forum and maybe you can help I have a new laptop with Windows Vista and I installed Avast but the Resident Protection does not install. I have tried to unistall it and reinstall it twice but it does not work. Pls help
The resident protection Windows Defender works well
I would not disable or uninstall unless you have a carefully chosen replacement
If you want to upgrade something upgrade the firewall
and the
windows Live One Care Scanner also works well
big surprise to me but true
Windows defender can be a pain in the ass but it does protect from unintentional downloads and installs
