***Things To Remember***
It is important to uninstall your old antivirus because it is not necessary to have more than one antivirus running on the computer at once. Running multiple antivirus programs will cause problems like system instability, crashes, false positives, lockups or worse. You can uninstall via programs and features OR with an uninstaller you can get from the antivirus company's website.
