Just download aswclear.exe from avast website. It is the Avast uninstall utility. Restart ur comp to safe mode and open aswclear.exe. Choose what program u want to uninstall and proceed.

I wonder why you chose to uninstall Avast.. If your trial version is running out, you can go to avast website and get your license key for FREE in just a minute. It's very simple really.

However, if you're sure you want to remove it, and are facing problems.

Go to your regedit and remove the keys yourself.

Go to start> Run> type in regedit> HKEY_Local Machine> SOFTWARE >
find the entries for alwil.. and right click and delete that entry.

Do the same for HKEY_Current User... that should solve your problem.

:-)
I would still suggest you to register your avast instead. It's free and effective.
