I used a trial version of Nod32 on my laptop. I decided to switch to AVG Antivirus. When I uninstalled Nod32, the uninstall window hung and i had to end the process by clicking 'End Now'. The folder of Nod32 was gone so i thought it had been successfully deleted! Then, when I installed AVG, It said that i first needed to delete another antivirus installed on my system. Now, as the folder was deleted, there was no uninstall file that could complete the uninstallation. Now I am stuck with no antivirus installed. Please help!
There is nothing to learn from someone who already agrees with you.

Reinstall Nod32 then uninstall well in safe mode. This way none of its services are running which may prevent a complete uninstall if areas of Nod32 are still running. If you don't have ccleaner on your system download and install. Use the registry cleaner portion to remove orphan enterers left in the registry.
