    Remnants of AVG and Avast left after uninstalll.


    I had been trying out Avast and AVG internet security packages but decided to go with another package.
    However after running their uninstalls and both Avastclear and AVGclear there are still items related to these products in the registry and taskbar settings.

    AVG or Avast

    Hey guys, just wanted to know is it pointless running 2 antivirus programs on your computer, I've got AVG 8.0 and avast, and the reason I got avast was because avg update keeps on stuffing up, and I was thinking of getting rid of it, any thoughts?
