WINDOWS 8 Action Center reports off firewall/anti-virus/antispyware, McAfee says that all are turned on and running. I tried to turn it on through the Action Center, but nothing happens.
Thanks for the reply. I appreciated the recommendation run malwarebytes because it gave me peace of mind knowing that he found nothing. The error of origin correct auto in the last two days seemed so it was an update from Microsoft or a McAfee update that has straightened things. Thank you once again.

I recently had to have my rebuilt computer caused by a virus. Now I have Mozilla Firefox with ABP and see that Firefox has a program's built-in phishing and viruses. Do I need a program additional anti-malware? If so, the one that works best with Firefox? Seems put more you on these things the you have more trouble.
The anti-phishing protection and malware that Firefox uses checks against a list of websites that have been reported to contain a form of malware and then alerts you. Firefox itself does not scan files to see if they contain viruses/malware. You still need a form any anti-virus and anti-malware protection. You must also use a firewall.
As for which is better, you are likely to get many different answers, it's a topic that generates a lot of discussion. A product one person loves will be hated by someone else. I use Microsoft Security Essentials as well as Windows Firewall.

Should I have my firewall on at all because I have Microsoft Security Essentials?
Original title: Firewall Question
I can access photos and music from my computer to the TV if I turn off my windows firewall. Should I have my firewall on at all because I have Microsoft Security Essentials?
Hello
The short answer is Yes, you need the firewall-firewall blocking incoming and outgoing communication except for these applications which his self-taught (trained) are safe allow and therefore blocking unwanted software / unknown (programs, Trojan horses, software spyware, etc.). On the other hand, Microsoft Security Essentials is an antivirus application, that caters to a specific type of malware - virus.
If the problem is the firewall, let me suggest another freeware firewall that has targeted training, so that you can train to your TV and your computer communicate securely. This program is PrivateFirewall, download it here: http://www.softpedia.com/get/Security/Firewall/Privatefirewall.shtml - this is the firewall that I have used successfully on my own computer for several years now.
Let me know if this solves the problem for you.
Kind regards

I have no sound. I went to my device manager and it says that I have not installed. I'm not very computer, so I have no idea where to go from here. If someone could help me I would be very happy!
Hi ShariKB,
· What is the exact error message in Device Manager?
· How long have you been faced with this problem?
· Did you do changes on the computer before the show?
· You have security software installed on your computer?
Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:
Method 1: I suggest you to follow the steps in the Microsoft article and check if it helps.
No sound in Windows
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/help/no-sound-in-Windows
Method 2: I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malware
The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.
Important: While running scan on the hard drive if bad sectors are found on the hard drive when scanning try to repair this area if all available on which data may be lost.
Hope this information helps.

adobe story is provided with a full suite or you have to buy it separately?
adobe story is provided with a full suite or you have to buy it separately?
I own a suite full Adobe CC, but I don't see it on the list of the applications that I have. I know that I can use the free version in a browser, but I'd really prefer to have the desktop application.
If you have the full suite of CC (single version), you should have more access to history.
Because it is classified as one of Adobe online services, it is not listed in the creative Cloud desktop application.
You can access them from: https://story.adobe.com
After login, you can find the possibility to download the desktop application in the home of the application view.

Delete a few files TEMP this morning and AOL and Firefox no longer works. AOL will again and removed all traces of the first installation of Firefox and downloaded a new version of Firefox. The program opens, but it immediately goes into a status of "not responding" and appears in the tab 'connection '. Cannot click on anything on the Firefox screen. Need to go to the Task Manager to kill the program. Have removed and reinstalled several times. Disconnected the firewall and antivirus. Again and always get the same result. Tried in safe mode. Same result. Going on 8 hours of work on this thing. Need help badly. The system is a version update of XP.
Thank you all, but I gave up. Tried all the suggestions without success. Put at disposal of the HDD with Windows XP and the problem of Firefox and loaded Windows 7 on a new drive. I had saved a file backup Favorites from the XP machine and successfully migrate the new hard drive. Thanks again.

Microsoft is the Action Center my Spyware, Firewall, Anti virus does not work?
I have triple checked last week that my Norton Security Suite is running. I have all the reports since 15/09/12 when it has been reinstalled my OPS by HP. I scanned my Face Book account & even to run Norton PC Check UP 360 to check. What happens to my PC? I also sent my PC to the HP helpline and informed them of the problem. I learned my PC passed all the diagnostic reports and yet I continue to worry about. Any suggestions? Could there be a problem with the software reloaded in my PC? My PC was initially under all Windows 7 IE 9, I know not confused with conflicting terms of Windows 8 IE 10. I'd feel better if your Department stated also ignore the warnings that you are covered with Norton. Thank you, Kaye Jachimski

Hi, I'm not familiar with Mozilla or Firefox.
He said that it will replace a program such as Norton virus protection and tastes.
Question is, is Firefox anti-virus protection, firewall, anti-phishing and all, download us the wrong product, or does it download something to go with it and what?
We noticed that when we have sought the protections of virus on your site, we were transferred from your site to other sites.
Please clarify this.
Sorry for the long question, but we don't know anything about your program.Thank you
Don
Firefox has anti-phishing and protection of 'web attack', but it does not replace an antivirus program or a firewall.

In the United States I have the dish as a TV provider. I can connect flat with my 4 Apple TV version and look at Apps like CBS, CNN, go, etc... When I try to do the same thing in Mexico with my 3 Apple TV version these same apps do not work. In Mexico, I have tried resetting everything and through other steps proposed in this forum. Nothing has worked.
Hello. I think they can tell where you are by your IP address. Their servers can block content if they are not allowed to provide at your location. You can try to contact the dish.

I would like a breakdown of what I have for mozilla firefox, but I'm looking in the wrong place or I do not have a firewall?
Hello
Firefox is a web browser and, while it has security features included, does not come with a firewall.
I noticed that you are using Windows 7. Who doesn't have a firewall, the parameters that are accessible via the control panel.
I hope this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look at another solution for you.

OK, so I want a definition of firefox as everytime I open firefox, it should act like he doesn't remember anything, no browsing history, no cookies, no password for any site. But as soon as I provide a password for firefox, it should be regarded as "My firefox" and sign throughout the site for me like facebook, g-mail and others. In short, I don't want to connect all sites that it time and time again at the same time, I want not firefox to remember history. Is there a setting in Mozilla firefox?
You can use the master password to go through this article that will help you.
