Hello all!
I am using Avast! 5 on my XP virtual machine and I like it! The user
interface is very JAWS friendly. I like the improved sounds. I also like
the fact there's an accessible progress bar now during a scan. I'll sure
switch to it if I can't trust MSE anymore.

Hello Joe;
well, I also tried the suggestion, "App remover", I found the program
did not remove all of the avast files.
I tried the program 3 times, however, each time I restarted my computer,
avast was running in my system tray.
also, I tried, going to msconfig and unchecking the program in startup,
however, it kept showing in the system tray, and, for some strange
reason, each time I went back to, msconfig, I found the start avast at
startup was rechecked.
I finally went to msconfig,/start up services, and, stopped it from
running their.
when I restarted computer, I then had to clean out the registry.
it wasn't an easy chore to rid myself of the avast5.exe.

Thanks, Lisa,
I used your suggestion and ran the software. It didn't find avast but
the problem remains. Do you or anyone on the list have any other
suggestions?

Hi. There's a neat shareware program someone posted about on this
list called App remover. It removes antivirus and security software
completely so you can install other antivirus and security software.
I used it to remove AVAST and installed MSE and don't have any
lingering AVAST issues.
The link to download it is:

The program is easy to use and works great with JAWS.

Come on, be honest... you don't really LOL when you text it now do you?

Good morning List,
I recently discontinued using Avast, and installed MSE. The issue I
now have is that several times a day a banner pops up. It advises me
to update with Avast,
I removes Avast thru the Add Delete program. How can I get rid of
the banner? Any help would be appreciated
Regards,
Joe
