I cannot uninstall the Home Edition

When trying to remove the program, I got an error (setiface error 2)

When uninstalling with the aswclear, it seems that the uninstall is complete since I get the message : Avast4! successfully removed)

.. but when re-booting my PC, I'm welcomed in Avast4 Home... and the program is still there. Can you help Please

What do you mean? Why do you think avast is still there?

Did you install avast twice in two different folders?
Which OS are you using? Is it up to date?
What avast! version and VPS file (virus database) number?
Is there any other security programs that could interfere?
