Removing AVG 8.0

[Kenter]

    Sorry for not updating regularly Broni but life has been very hectic lately. Here is the latest: I downloaded the AVG free file you gave the link to. It tells me that AVG 7 is installed on this system and it is not recommended to install AVG 8. Without first removing AVG 7.

    So I tried to go to the file of AVG 8 in the start menu and try the uninstall from there. It then tells me this: Uninstall failed! 1 error occured, Click details to show information. Then under details it says: (Local machine: prepared for the installation Installation:Error: Uninstallation is not possible. Product not installed.) That's where we are at the moment.

    What have we got for the hard option?

You didn't read my previous reply carefully enough:

Choose the Uninstall option

I have only been able to update my free version of AVG once, it never allows me to update.

OK.
Give me fresh HJT log.

I'm sorry Broni but I said in my last post that the AVG Free installer doesn't have the uninstall option. It only has the new install option listed.

I had the same issue...
Tried almost everything (disbling services, regedits, you name it...), except....
I was like: Surfing till my eyes are crossed and no-one a solution on my errors, trying to uninstall / reinstall AVG? I did the unthinkable (meaning: I never thought of it!)
I searched for: avg uninstaller... Et voila! Where do I find a tool for it? at AVG itself!
It's called AVG Remover
Run the program and perfectly, everything is gone 

If you need it you can find it at: http://www.avg.com/download-tools
Hope this will help others as well
