    Uninstall tools for major antivirus products...

    Changing your antivirus product is a non-trivial thing to do. While all the major suites have become better about uninstalling cleanly from Add or Remove Programs, many still fail this -- either in general terms or in specific cases.

    You need a specifically designed tool just to uninstall these things?? Makes you wonder what the real "virus" is.

    No, turn it around...

    Because malware has gotten so sophisticated in its ability to cripple or uninstall antivirus software, the specifically designed tools are required to do so...
