AVG when I don't have it

When using CCleaner, in the "Applications" tab there is an entry for AVG 8. I do not have this program on my computer. How can I remove that entry? It is unchecked, but it still bothers me.

Did you have it on your machine in the past?

He probably did, someone who uses AVG here or is familiar with AVG's Registry keys?

EDIT: he/she depending on the gender.

Probably a folder left in program files or a leftover key in HKCU/software or HKLM/software.

Methinks CCleaner should be able to confirm left over folders/keys with the "Installed Programs" list; the only Pros to the current 'bug' is that we know that there is something leftover. :lol:

I just removed the leftover keys of Adobe Photoshop CS4 last week after seeing I have both installed. :huh:

Should be in the registry somewhere because that's where CCleaner detects it from.

Try to find it here in the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\AVG
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Grisoft

Notice:

If you have other Grisoft/AVG security software installed make certain that you expand the parent key location and only delete the old version of what's listed, since if you don't you could damage other installed Grisoft/AVG software.

Yes a long time ago

Ok will do. I don't have any other Grisoft software at all.
