Title: Reinstall

Some trojans have been getting past my Avast 4 home. Can I reinstall over my current version or must I uninstall before I reinstall?

HD,

Remember, Avast is desiged to detect viruses.  Some Trojans are really "spyware".

Try installing an anti-spyware product such as Adaware or Spybot.
