Exclamation Need Help with Security Centre!
Ages ago i had Avast! Antivirus installed on my pc.. Then i decided to uninstall it. After i uninstalled it, i noticed that in my Windows Sceurity Centre it STILL says i have Avast! installed....

I've tried searching, using programs like OTscan, Hijack this! but none of them worked....
I've also tried to restart the security centre using Services.msc. but still doesn't work...

Anyone got Any ideas???

FYI: my under the Anti-Virus tab in WIndows Security Centre it says :

Avast! 4.8.1169 [VPS 080409-1] is installed on my computer.... PLEASE HELP!!!!! THIS IS REALLY BUGGING ME BECAUSE IT DOESN'T LET ME INSTALL AVG 8.0 PROPERLY BECAUSE IT CLAIMS I HAVE ANOTHER ANTI-VIRUS PROGRAM!!!!

Helpppp.!!!!!!!!!
