Title: How do I disable/uninstall Avast "Safe Price"??
Post by: MeeHungLowe on January 29, 2014, 04:55:33 PM

Today, I suddenly have some sort of Avast Free ribbon bar across the top of my browser LOUDLY proclaiming a "Safe Price" whenever I go to Amazon.  I don't want to see this - and I don't care what Avast thinks of my shopping choices.  I cannot see a way to disable this - all I can do is disable it for 24 hours??  WTF is this nonsense??  Please tell me how to disable/uninstall this add-in.

Come on Avast!  Please don't become yet another silly marketing-driven company.  Please don't let the people that call your users "eyeballs" and "mouse clicks" run the company into the ground.

From the AOS settings you can untick safe price or click on uninstall avast then choose change, from the change screen you can untick unwanted features.

It's part of the Browser Protection module "AOS" ( avast online security )
