Hi Guys. I have managed to only partly uninstall Avast !. v.4.8.1356. Running on WinXP SP2.
ashServ.exe is still running(visible in the Task Manager). And unfortunately, the the Avast! configuration interface is uninstalled / deleted / not available from Start Menu or Add/Remove Programs. Also, the Avast! Service Icon does not appear in the Running Services at the Bottom right of the TaskBar.
I have tried to use the latest version of aswclear6.exe to get rid of the running service ashServ.exe.But no cigar.
aswclear6.exe kicks up the following errro: "The avast! self protection module is enabled. For this reason, the operation cannot be completed."
If I try to reboot via SAFE MODE, the computer crashes and reboots half way through the loading /boot up process. Cant even get to the User login prompt.
SUGGESTIONS FOR FIX ?
