How to remove Ewido anit-spyware

Hello all, I have been trying to download the free AVG antivirus 8.0 but I can't because I have Ewido Anti Spyware on my computer. I tried to delete this but it won't let me it says Access denied. Make sure disc is not full or write protected and that the file is not currently in use.
I went and tried to delete cookies but I don't think that worked either. Is there anyone out there who can help me with this.

No I am still looking and it is driving me crazy! I have removed everything I can find with ewido, malware, avg and it just won't work

 

Did you use the ewido or AVG Anti-Spyware Software in the past?
For the case you used the ewido Software, please check in your program files folder for the ewido installation folder. Default path is (Example here for english Version of Windows):
C:\program files\ewido anti-spyware 4.0
older ewido Versions have other Installations folders, e.g:
C:\program files\ewido anti-malware

For the case you used AVG Anti-Spyware, then please locate the installation folder of AVG Anti-Spyware in your program files folder:
C:\program files\Grisoft\AVG Anti-Spyware 7.5
and then run there the uninstall.exe file to start the uninstallation of the Software, if you deleted manually the Folders and files, but you still get Errors during the Installation of AVG 8, please follow there steps:

If you want to uninstall the ewido Software:

- Download the Setup for the ewido Anti-Spyware Version 4 from this website:

- Now locate the installation folder of the ewido Software in your program files folder (C:\program files\ewido anti-spyware) and run the uninstall.exe file to start the uninstallation process.

- Now restart Windows again.
