Thanks for the info.
Are you saying that after you uninstalled all versions of C++ you checked windows update and it wanted you to put one back?

Incredimail needed c++?  That's friggin weird.

I thought Avast! needed C++ for some reason or another.

[DavidR]

Avast requires C++ 2008 SP1, anything older than that might not be required by avast but may be required an older program.

I recently removed C++ 2005 redistributable with no problem.

You're right.

[scythe944]

Guess that's new for 5/6.  4.8 doesn't need it apparently.

Avast itself requires the C++2008 runtimes. I wouldn't delete anything. You wouldn't have them unless something you installed required them.

everything is working like roses on this new piece of advanced computer crap
my avast! internet security is doing its good thing!!
