A few years ago I had a problem with PC Guard (it wouldn't install the updates) and decided to uninstall it and then download and install the latest version from scratch.

After several failures, I discovered that if I uninstalled Broadband Advisor as well I could re-install PC Guard. But if memory serves, you have to remove PC Guard, then remove Broadband Advisor (in that order), then install the latest version (which will also install Broadband Advisor again).
