Somebody installed Avast! on this MacBook running OSX 10.8 (that's what uname said) and now it won't boot, it gets stuck at the apple logo and nothing more, I was able to boot into single-user mode and made a backup. I have already run Avast!'s uninstall script at:

I downloaded an update a few days ago, and ever since then, I can not log on to the Internet through AOL 9.6. (I can connect to the Internet through Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox.) I uninstalled AOL 9.6 and reinstalled it, but it still will not connect to the Internet. Welcome to Avast WEBforum, powered by Simple Machines® Forum (SMF) software!

part way down the first page of the thread, the poster Francisco Velasco had a solution that worked for me (his is reply #9 August 17, 2014). Good luck, and steer clear of Avast Antivirus - I'm going back to ClamX AV!!

1. Turn off your Mac, press Command + S, turn on, and don´t release Command + S until you see the Apple logo

2. When you are in the prompt (a black screen with white letters), type
   /sbin/mount -uw / < ENTER >

   Latest version of avast secureline for mac. Avast SecureLine VPN crack protects the system from malware, and the established firewall doesn’t allow to have unauthorized access to the computers.

3. Work through these commands, in sequence:
   cd Library < ENTER >
cd Application Support < ENTER >
   (as there is a space between 'Application' & 'Support', we use after Application then a space)
   cd Avast < ENTER >
cd components < ENTER >
cd uninstall < ENTER >
cd com.avast.uninstall.app < ENTER >
cd Contents < ENTER >
cd MacOS < ENTER >

4. Now, in this last folder if you type
   ls < ENTER >
   You will see a file called uninstall.sh, and this is the one to run to removeAvast, now to use it you must use the following instruction
   sudo sh uninstall.sh < ENTER >
   After this now you can reboot your Mac
   reboot < ENTER >

5. If after this reboot you can´t login your Mac, turn off your mac, repeat step 1 and 2 and now go to the folder
   cd private < ENTER >
cd etc < ENTER >
ls < ENTER >
   and you see a file with the name launchd.conf, you need to delete this file, type the following
   rm launchd.conf < ENTER >
   Reboot your Mac with
   reboot < ENTER >

Restart your Mac and press :

This would put your mac in a recovery state, this should help & make sure your data is backed up.

To uninstall Avast from Mac on Yosemite, El Capitan (haven't check it for previous OS X).

Method #1Find provided uninstaller. Usually it's inside dmg file with Avast.Launch it and it should completely uninstall Avast.

Method #2Uninstall Avast as usual. Then delete following files and folders:

Macintosh HD > Users > [current user] >~Library > Application Support > Avast

Macintosh HD > Users > [current user] >~Library > Caches > com.avast.AAFM

Macintosh HD > Users > [current user] >~Library > LaunchAgents > com.avast.home.userpront.plist

P.S. Be sure you perform all manipulations as Administrator

Why Is My Mac Not Allowing Me To Use Volume
