Ad-Aware - Upgrading May Not Remove Older Start Menu Items

SUMMARY: Clean up your Windows Start Menu after upgrading Ad-Aware.

When upgrading to a new version of Ad-Aware, such as from version 6 to version SE, note that the installer may not remove Start Menu items for previous versions of Ad-Aware. To remove these items:

1. Click "Start" -> "Programs" (or "All Programs" if you are running Windows XP).

2. Right-click on the folders representing the older versions (their contents should be empty).

3. Select "Delete".

Be sure not to delete the program group representing the latest version of Ad-Aware on your system!
