I 'm just after some advise please...I had a years trial of Pc tools Internet security runnin on my pc..it was runnin fine until i did a full system scan..it found a couple o trojans and a bit of malware..but nothing too serious. Any way....I quarantined and deleted them except 1...it was malware...listed as a medium threat.. Pc tools couldn't delete it.. it said I had to installl spyware doctor to get rid of it....I've now gone back to avast home adition... but I've had problems properly uninstalling some programes such as pc tools internet security amongst others...I'm using revo uninstaller,, which is usually fantastic...but now.. can't get rid of all bits of the programme...has this all got to do with this malware or pctools??

    It most likely has to do with PC Tools and perhaps what else you had installed. Did you try to uninstall everything related to PC Tools before installing Avast. Like they have an antivirus, a firewall, Spyware Doctor, and Threatfire. Not sure what else. This is really more of a Software Forum issue not a Malware Forum issue.
