Hi Curtis,
just stop the program from running, and uninstall.
..Try
press window key plus the letter b
arrow to avast and press shift f10 and arrow up to disable.
If you are not able to disable the program, press window key plus the
letter r
type
msconfig
shift tab
arrow right to startup
tab
arrow down to avast and uncheck all avast components you might have
several avast components starting up at boot up.
I don't know since I don't use avast.
now reboot and you should be able to uninstall avast.
To uninstall
press window key
type add or
and enter on add or remove programs
find avast
and right click and uninstall should be a choice.
Good luck,
Manny

Hi. My wife's computer has AVAST! so thought I'd give it a try. Well,
seems it not only installed google chrome and the google toolbar, it
also told my machine that "http://" does not have any program associated
with it, though ever since I was a wee lad in computers in 1991 I've
known about "http://" being an internet shortcut. So, with all this
waltzing around, I get to it eh? :)
how do I uninstall AVAST! seems extremely reluctant to go, even more so
than google chrome. keeps warning that if I, such and such, all these
bad things will happen to me and I shouldn't, etc. you all know the
drill.
anyone have good luck with it and can recommend how to go about solving
my dilemma?
I know, hind sight and all that, but I need to go forward and this isn't
helping.
