I uninstalled AVG and installed Avast, but parts of AVG are always in my computer... How can I get rid of AVG?

I removed AVG and installed Avast, BUT the computer is slow, and I see a lot of files AVG still in the computer.  How can I get rid of AVG?  I did a search and found 269 files related to avg!  I tried to delete them one by one, but some of them I get a message that Windows can not remove this file.  Help!

DON'T waste your time trying to manually delete the files! In addition to being inefficient, you run the risk to delete system files, thus causing real damage to your system.

You must run the AVG Remover tool, which can be found here:
If you want to help to improve your performance, you should start a new thread in the performance and Maintenance section.

  • mediaget2 is installed and running on my computer, how can I get rid of him?

    Original title: program installation

    I learned that a program called mediaget2 is installed and running on my computer. I tried to open the program, but nothing has been posted. When I tried to uninstall, I was told that the program was running. Please help me to get rid as I

    cannot open or uninstall.

    If you use Windows XP, you should uninstall it by going to control panel, click Add/Remove programs. Scroll down to MediaGet2, and then uninstall it.
    If you use Windows Vista or Windows 7, go to control panel, click programs and features. Scroll down to MediaGet2, and then uninstall it.

    If these methods do not contribute to uninstall MediaGet2, you can download a 3rd party software program and then remove MediaGet2.

    I hope this helps.

  • Webshots smile updater tries to open when I start my computer, how can I get rid of the updater, but keep the old webshots?

    I like webshots but hate the new smile of webshots.  It's a vile replacement which resulted when webshots was sold and then bought by a new company.  I want to keep my old webshots Photo Manager, so I can't remove webshots.  However, I want to stop the updater smile pop up every time my computer starts. Just to let you know, smile will fly, EACH photograph and film of the file on your computer if it can, then delete the webshots program if uninstall you it now.  This happened to a webshots Member who left on her computer too long.  It is the hearsay of bad intentions by the people to smile, but I don't want any chance of them access to my machine left in place.  Any help you can give on the withdrawal of this issue of update of the file will be more appreciated.

    If you still have your photos on the old Webshots and they are not in Jpeg format, you can download and use a program called ultimate Webshsots converter and then they will be visible even without the old Webshots Photo Manager. Then you can just keep them in your Windows Photo Gallery, which has a pretty decent screensaver. They have more tags or titles on them, but when I went into My Documents, "more...". ", clicked on research and has recently changed then scroll far all JPEG images, are seen as icons, all titles were there. It also eliminates the problem with copyright of Webshots being on each photo, even your own, which is how they are displayed in the smile. I hate the new site also and was horrified when my old Webshots has simply disappeared without warning last week. The more people who know how to transfer their photos with this little program UWC, more hopefully will recover their photos and quickly uninstall the new smile of their computers, never to return. Good luck!

  • Somehow, I applied the options of AutoFill for all Web sites and it is interfering with the creation of a USPS label. How can I get rid of him?

    I had found the Autofil area (don't remember not exactly where I found it) and must be entered my own information. But now when I go to the USPS website, it Autofils my own information in the TO: section. Even if I get information on and put in the correct information, when I click to go to the next screen, it won't move forward and goes back to tell me that there is an error on the page. I have already contacted their tech support, and they told me that this isn't a problem with their site. So it must be the autofil function which is ruin. But I can't understand how to return to the "authorized" State Thanks for any help in advance.

    Firefox has never had a button to "auto form fill. You probably had an installed extension that provided this button. The add-on which cor-el mentioned is probably the best extension of Autofill currently available for Firefox.

  • I delete search Google Firefox but it always comes back. How can I get rid of it for good?

    I deleted from my search provider Google. I've used about: config to remove all references to Google. After the closure of Firefox once or twice, Google is back and fits as my default search provider. I scanned for viruses and rootkits, but my computer seems to be clean.

    You notice other parameters to their default values being reset?

    Your favorite default search provider is stored in the file prefs.js, a settings file in your Firefox profile folder.

    Note that the SearchReset extension runs only once and then uninstalls automatically, so it will not appear on the page "> Firefox Add-ons" (topic: addons).
