If successful the location below should not contain any AVG folders:

Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files

The AVG Security Toolbar should now be removed from your system.

If you remove the Toolbar you'll still get the LinkScanner protection right?

Correct.

Considering you can't uninstall it from the Add/Remove or Program and Features, it makes sense that you are given the choice to remove it from the AVG LinkScanner GUI.
