Hi Guys,

I installed Panda 2015 Antivirus Pro ( 3 months trial). Initially it felt very good.
But then I had to join some meeting using Microsoft Lync and I was not able to.

After trying for several time, I had to uninstall Panda. not that's where I faced weird problem.

Problem with Uninstalltion

1. Panda uninstaller was taking too much time. I waited for 30 minutes. but it was stuck. So I had to restart the system.
2. After restart my system was very very slow. I saw panda icon in my Taskbar but none of the protection was running. I checked the services and panda services was still there.
3. As I had no more uninstaller file, i downloaded Panda Generic Uninstalled from Panda Website.
4. when I ran the new uninstalled, my audio driver were removed too along with panda. And problem was I was unable to Install it again.

finally I had to reinstall Windows 7 :( .

may be it's just me who faced this problem. But still wanted to share as a warning with Panda 2015 uninstaller.
