| 1358764 | 2013-11-04 19:08:00 | Tune up came in with a app, got rid of app but tune up is persistent. It doesn't show in msconfig start up, yet it is there. Have tried to delete through CCleaner and control panel, but not to be seen in either. It is related to AVG in the Netherlands. Cunning lot. |

| 1358765 | 2013-11-04 22:05:00 | Try Revo Unistaller, use the advanced mode. If it doesn't show in the installed programs then it will need other software to remove - more on that later if needed. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and get the portable version: revo_uninstaller_free_download (www.revouninstaller.com) |

| 1358767 | 2013-11-04 23:49:00 | So just to be clear - there is no "AVG PC TuneUp (2014)" in your Add or Remove Programs list? | bevy121 (117) | ||
| 1358768 | 2013-11-05 01:38:00 | I had that on a PC, forget what I did now...I know I checked add/remove, manually deleted stuff from the registry, ran JRT, ran Hijackthis, and manually removed stuff from the User account - Apps - roaming and local. One or all got rid of it all, I suspect the profile cleanup did most of it.... | pctek (84) | ||
| 1358769 | 2013-11-05 03:45:00 | So just to be clear - there is no "AVG PC TuneUp (2014)" in your Add or Remove Programs list? Absolutely correct! |

| 1358771 | 2013-11-05 07:32:00 | No idea if these will work either, Most of their software wont do what its meant to do, but they do have removal tools www.avg.com AVG should go into the Virus /Malware creation business, they are already 95% of the way there already. Their software works much the same as the before mentioned :D | wainuitech (129) | ||

Their software works much the same as the before mentioned :D Was looking good with that, ran everything, looked to be cleaning, but in the end Tune Up is still in start up. Has to be cunning to stay there when not in MS start up. That didn't help Law. But thanks. |

| 1358773 | 2013-11-05 08:03:00 | OK bring out the big guns :devil These may or may not work. Download and run www.bleepingcomputer.com -- It will do a self scan first, then on the right, click Scan, once finished click each button one at a time, if its not got it out then on that page, scroll down to the bottom, download and run Junkware Removal tool, & AdwCleaner. In each case click the Blue Button "Download Now @ Authors Site" FAILING all that I'll infect a PC and see what it takes to get it out. Got a couple of jobs tomorrow that I'll be watching paint dry for a few hours while they do their stuff :sleep |
