Generally I use the windows add remove programs to uninstall an application.

I can't recall if there was an uninstall in the Program Menu folder in my previous installation.

I have lots of other programs that don't have an uninstall in the Program Menu folder.

I'm pretty sure that CCleaner uses the same routines as add/remove does and the fact that running it manually didn't work either suggests that add/remove would have failed as well. I use CCleaner because it populates the list much faster and the scroll wheel on my mouse works where it doesn't in the add/remove list. I also follow up an uninstall with a run of CCleaner's registry cleaner so it's faster to already have the program open.

SUPERAntiSpyware is an effective tool in the fight against malware - we don't view Avast, MBAM, etc. etc. etc. and the 200 other products as competitors as we are ALL working TOGETHER in the fight against malware.
Thanks for that statement. That's precisely what I tell those at the seminar I give when the statement is made as to
comparing the abilities of various security programs.
I do however always mention that in my opinion, avast!6 is the best antivirus on the market Free or paid.  :)

Nick :)

Please don't be upset because of Dieselman.

There are many Avast! users who use SAS and we appreciate your input here. I am going to try the new version. Thank you :)

Greetz, Red.

I am not upset at all! This type of interaction invites communication and we are all in this together to fight malware!

Wishful thinking will not make this go away. As long as there's a buck to be made,
the bad guys will be out there looking for suckers.  :'(

It really has nothing to do with Windows. If the MAC OS or even Linux would have been the predominant player for the last 20 years, they would have been the ones under attack and the ones people were blaming.

And as the head of that corporation, isn't that exactly what he's supposed to be doing ???
If that wasn't his ultimate goal, he's be lacking in his duties.
I'm sure that's also Vince's Goal for Avast. Make avast! the best and dominant antivirus in the industry.  :)

you can't compare an AV to an operating system Bob ;) ...let alone that there's currently no equivalent to the policy of exclusion applied on Apple systems, meaning that you have no other choice than accept, or move along (or jailbreak yeah I know...).

ps: an AV doesn't have the power to exclude anything, it's just an app.
