No, it's not normal.
Which was your old antivirus? How did you uninstall?
I suggest an installation from the scratch:
1. Uninstall avast from Control Panel first.
2. Boot.
3. Download the latest version of
Avast Uninstall and use it for complete uninstallation.
4. Boot.
5. Install again the latest
avast! version.
6. Boot.
7. Check and post the results.
