Some of these so-called helpers need to comprehend what is being said!
Some say Chrome installed itself either after an update at it's own accord or otherwise... For Gods sake will you guy's listen to what is being said - it happened to me there was NO OPTION get it, how much clearer must you have it explained, do you really have cloth ears or what?
Stop fanning the fire and accept what is being said!
Avast has no intentions of stopping this 'piggy backing' it makes them money, either put up with it or do what I did put Avast on a standby drive whilst using something else, either it gets sorted before my expiry date or goodbye Avast!
Even using their removal tool left files and folders around, I went through bit by bit for Alwil and Avast folders.... including Avast, Alwil & Google entries in the registry yet doing a clean install - Chrome installed with no option - understand, no option?
I recloned the hard drive installed Avast.... lo and behold I had the Chrome option box. Now what file caused that uh, you are the experts aren't you?
People on here needs to accept what is being said, not everyone wants Chrome... and Avast shouldn't be piggy backing'!
And it does install without ones knowledge whether you all like it or not, so please stop saying it doesn't!
