before removing antivirus in regedit

[notapc]

I have had problems as i uninstalled avira anti virus from my machine ,but today when trying to remove windows defender and windows firewall,which will not dissapear ,it said in the security that my firewall was avira, so i have been in regedit, system root and searched ,i have found a file called avi,as i am not a computer expert hence my name not a pc ,instead of im a pc lol!,im not sure if this is the file im searching for as i cannot find avira,and im thinking if i delete this i may regret it,so its best to ask some one,is there any WINDOWS components called avi in system root,or have i correctly identified the file i am looking for?

Please do not mess around in the registry. Please run this tool and post the log in your next reply

Download Security Check by screen317 from one of the following links and save it to your desktop.

* Unzip SecurityCheck.zip and a folder named Security Check should appear.
* Open the Security Check folder and double-click Security Check.bat
* Follow the on-screen instructions inside of the black box.
* A Notepad document should open automatically called checkup.txt
* Post the contents of that document in your next reply.

Note: If a security program requests permission from dig.exe to access the Internet, allow it to do so.

Thanks but im quite experienced. Any threats or rootkits are now dead ,My current bullguard 9.0 and SUPERAntiSpy have done a brilliant job. Along with autoruns -system internals check and rootkit revealer, to check that anything unwanted is removed. Yes you are correct in the sense regedit is hard to use and dangerous for a novice. But autoruns is brilliant and far simpler. Thankyou for reply ,I had a doubleclick virus which has gone it was using a fake avira firewall.
