Deleting it by no means purged the registry of it's progeny and if you go in and manually delete them-your system simply won't boot. I still have tons of legacy orphan reg entries from when I ran SAVCE 10. STILL we don't need to be so "protected" that we can't be the ultimate arbitrators over what does and doesn't have jurisdiction and dominion over our own computers at any given time. There are very valid and good reasons that a realtime AV has a lot of protection to prevent some malware from disabling it-and infections that do just that have been some of the most obnoxious to deal with over the years. What I won't know till I re-start that machine is whether or not Avast will reset those service permission at boot. I.e., you can reset the permissions on any registry entry from Winternals and then change that service from "auto" to disabled. Either boot up in safe mode and disable them or if that isn't a low enough level control Boot from an alternative environment like Winternals, which will let you load your registry but still give you God's own permission over it. There are still "interactive Processes" that run and that under normal circumstance cannot be "disabled" as services-There are low-level locked. Doing it that way, they stay shut down until you activate them again. I have figured out how to go in and individually terminate most of Avasts shields and scanners and a few other things-whcih is helpful.
The system is constantly deadlocking-and my guess is because there are still Avast services running in conjunction with Endpoints. I am experiencing that now as I test dirve Symantec Endpoint. They can cause each other all sorts of grief. One should NEVER have two of those puppies in play at the same time. While I test drive other Anti-virus apps-and again I'm not talking about simple scanners.I'm talking about other resident real-time malware protection apps and suites. May well be that I decide to upgrade to Avast 5 Network from 4.8. Currently I'm scoping out what's out there afresh and will decide on what is the best protection available.
I'm been using Avast, happily, for two years aafter many years of using Symantec Corp ED. Well you know, All due respect to the Uber Techocrati here there are indeed valid reasons someone may have to really disable a resident realtime AV program.
