You are so awesome, thanks, I bookmarked that. Yet I'm thinking I should uninstall the old version, yet there is not a de-install option anywhere, I searched my hard drive for filenames containing "avast" which turned up nothing, and Add/remove programs wasn't any help... so I'm just trying to install the free one... oh frig, the installer says "We have detected a previous antivirus is still installed on your PC. For the most effective security, we recommend to uninstall your previous software." WELL, THANKS, I -=WOULD=-, BUT I CANNOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET RID OF THE DARN THING! I can't even find how to shut it down. Can anyone help on that?
Merci beaucoup!
