Firstly go to "Start > Run" and type in
aawservice.exe and make sure that the Ad-Aware 2007 Service has been stopped (if it is still running, click on "Stop").
Click to view attachmentOnce the Service is stopped, try uninstalling again.
If you still encounter problems, please download the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility from
hereIn the list of programs detected by the WICU, locate any reference to Ad-Aware and select it, then click on "Remove".
Then navigate to the following folders and delete anything left behind (these are the default paths - if you changed the installation path, then use that path):
C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-Aware 2007\
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Lavasoft
Please post back if you have any further problems.
