What operating system do you have?
You say you removed it in two ways, can you explain this a little?
If you have uninstalled it sometimes you just need a reboot for it to work!0 -
Cheers guys, i followed advice for the removal tool, it said i had removed avg 8 so i went back to the google page n found this addy which explained why it would not load...
