com.avast.uninstall trying to run every 10 seconds after deleted Avast Free

[REDACTED]

Hello,

I deleted Avast Free a while ago and just noticed in my console log that a rogue process is running over and over. I'm on 10.6.8. Here is a sample of the log.

It repeats this over and over. Could anyone please assist? How do I stop this?

Because that's not how you uninstall Avast, there's a top menu item when running avast that says 'Uninstall Avast'. You'll have to reinstall it again and use the proper method, that's the easiest way.
