to remove avg you should just need to click start, then all programs, avg, then click uninstall avg.

Also why have you bought one when avg is perfectly fine and is free?

AVG should have its own unistall program.

I'm using the free one and if you go Start > All Programs > AVG Free 8.0 there is a 'Uninstall AVG' button.

Had exact same sito, after you uninstalled avg, kaspersky, still detects is there. You would need to delete any avg folders in the program files folder AND delete the registry key in system reg for avg.
to do this, click Start, run and type regedit. Then hunt for avg key file,
