Most often many people find it difficult to uninstall antivirus programs properly from their PC. I think this is especially true with latest operating system Windows 7.

Main cause is that antivirus programs are tightly integrated with the operating system; a normal uninstallation some times failed or left registry entries in the system. Therefore a re-installation or installing another antivirus program will not possible.
