Hi Asyn,
I am using a 64 bit machine with Windows 7 SP1.
I have Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (Free), AdwCleaner, Spybot S&D (Free), Super AntiSpyware, Emsisoft Antimalware (Free) as well as TDSSKiller.
All of the above programs are used on-demand - I don't have them running in the background.
I noticed notifications from Avast weren't working (e.g. virus database updates) so I decided to uninstall it and reinstall Avast to see if that fixed the problem - now I'm in this situation where it won't install properly.
I've also used the Avast Uninstall utility as well by booting into safe mode.
I'm concerned.
