PS: Don't remove Avira until you've installed and started the other AV program. If
you
can't start it without removing Avira first, physically disconnect form the
internet,
then remove Avira, reboot, and install/start the other AV program, shut down, and
then,
and only then reconnect to the web. Reboot.
I don't agree. This is a very draconian POV.

What don't you agree with? Is it the PS: remark?

1. You can remove Avira from the control panel applet. If there is a problem, and it
is
rare, you can obtain a tool from Avira. You don't need Revo. Albeit, you can use Revo
IFF there is a problem.
2. Don't install one AV on top of another and then remove the original. Uninstall,
reboot, install new AV solution.
3. You don't need to disconnect from the Internet. It is AV software, not a FireWall
application. This is especially true if you are behind a NAT Router.
