    my point was if it was version 8 then you probably needed to download version 9 for it to update proper

    either way ~ you need SOME sort of anti virus protection on your computer so your down to AVG, AVIRA or AVAST

    Forgive me interfering as Rik is looking after you so ably as usual but have you downloaded the right AVG remover? That is, are you on 32 bit or 64 bit?
    I only ask as I too have found that the remover tool does not do a complete job but this link that Rik gave on page 1 of this thread is diffetrent to the one I last used so I am having another go with a fresh download to see what happens.
    Good luck.
