A program called 'Strong Signal' on my computer.

Question

A program called 'Strong Signal' on my computer.  I have not installed this program.  My 'uninstall' command will not work to get rid of him.  Any suggestions?  (BTW - presented several other programs but I managed to uninstall those.  This means I've been hacked?).

Thank you.  In the meantime, I opened a session in safe mode and was able to uninstall.  But still a mystery how he and backupmypc and two browser changes happened.  I was wondering how my computer was vulnerable to this.

    In the end, you may need to restore your default system by using any method your OEM (hardware manufacturer - the manufacturer of your system) gave you to do.  Infections/infestations like this come rarely alone and the damage they cause persists even if you get rid of the issue.

    So - I suggest you make sure that your backups are up to date and get ready for the inevitable essentially format and a clean instalation followed to install applications and updates, and finally restore your data from backup.

    Do this...

    Search for malware:

    Download, install, execute, update and perform analyses complete system with the two following applications:

    Remove anything they find. Reboot when necessary. (You can uninstall one or both when finished.)

    Search online with eSet Online Scanner.

    The less you have to run all the time, most things you want to run will perform:

    Use Autoruns to understand this all starts when your computer's / when you log in. Look for whatever it is you do not know usingGoogle (or ask here.) You can hopefully figure out if there are things from when your computer does (or connect) you don't not need and then configure them (through their own built-in mechanisms is the preferred method) so they do not - start using your resources without reason.

    You can download and use Process Explorer to see exactly what is taking your time processor/CPU and memory. This can help you to identify applications that you might want to consider alternatives for and get rid of all together.

    See if you can get enough to double-check your backup before restoring the own default values.

    I play world of warcraft and use a program called ventrilo to talk with other players. the problem I have is my game sounds can be heard.
    Vista makes my headphones 'speakers', so when I use a program called ventrilo to talk with other players in my game sounds are heard through ventrilo. My headset is a headset/microphone generic plug-and-play.

    When I run not WoW, I can hear my own voice through the headset speakers when I talk.

    I want my headphones to work so I can hear my friends talking and the sounds of the game, but I don't want the game sounds to be filtered on the server for voice chat

    Any help would be much appreciated. I asked the same question to Geek Squad and their response has been to try to charge me $49.99 + tax for one of their "agents" can remote in and fix it. Do not use them unless you have: P

    Hey CassiusVa,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers Forum!

    Since when are you facing the issue?

    Can I know the version of Ventrilo you use on your computer?

    It may be that World of Warcraft focuses on your audio hardware.  You can try to reduce the audio settings in WoW to see if this makes the use of Ventrilo better.  It may also be a driver problem.  I would check to make sure that you have the latest drivers for your audio device.

    Use the following steps to ensure that the audio drivers are up to date.

    1. connect to the Internet.

    2. click on start and enter the Device Manager in the start search field.

    3. click on the plus sign next to sound, video and game controllers.

    4. right click on the name of the sound material and select software update of the driver...

    5. click on search automatically for a driver updated and wait for Windows to update the driver software.

    6 Windows checks a remote Web site to see if the update of the driver software is available.

    * If an update is available, let Windows install the update.

    * If an update is not available, proceed to the next step.

    7. once the update is successfully installed, test the microphone.

    Please follow the steps below and check if you still have questions echo.

    Go into Ventrilo Setup and select mixer for the sound card, which will be the audio input (as determined by the "Input device" option) device. This will populate the Mux and line options. Normally it would take only a Mux. It is possible that you may have many options of the line. Go ahead and select "Microphone" or anything that is appropriate for the input line and then click OK.

    This should solve the problem.

    Please note that you select mixer, mux and line will allow the "Hardware Volume" slider This gives you the control hardware on the audio input signal and is the best way to control how strong you are. Setting the cursor to halfway better seems to work for most people, but it will be hardware and system load.

    You can also browse the links for more information on ventrilo and try to contact them if the problem persists.

  • I managed to stop annoying popup windows from amazon today by the uninstall of a program called firefox maintenance. Was this spyware or software legitimate?

    I started getting pop ups very recently (oct 2015) I went to the Panel and programs a characteristic and class list install by date. At first it was one that I distrusted, maintenance on a hunch and firefox decided to uninstall it. I made the right choice - and how this program type of spyware/adware on my computer.

    Hi, there is a legitimate program called Mozilla Maintenance Service, which in your programs, should show the same under Firefox version number - what is the Service of Maintenance Mozilla?. If that's what you mean, it would be not responsible for pop-ups advertising. If it is really "Maintenance of Firefox", then I would have certainly considered with suspicion.

    You can check your settings pop up here - the Blocker settings, exceptions, and troubleshooting.

    If the problem persists, you can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:

    Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one. Windows 8 already has integrated antivirus.

    Hello

    If that's what I think it is, follow the removal instructions:

    AVG 2011 Antivirus is a fake anti-spyware from the same family as AVG 8. This infection of the computer is named, and should not be confused with the legitimate antivirus program called AVG anti-virus. This rogue is promoted through web sites that pretend to be online anti-malware scanners, but rather are advertisements that once completed the State of your computer is infected. This fake scanner then you will prompt to download and install AVG Anti-Virus 2011 on your computer in order to protect. It is worth noting that these fake online scanners are just advertising that have absolutely no way of knowing what is running on your computer. In fact they will show the same infection results to anyone who visits the page. Therefore, not worry about what you show these online scanners.

  • Strong Signal, no connection

    I'm new to the Board and I've looked everywhere to find an answer to my question and I forgot or it is simply not answered, so I'll write it now.

    I have a BEFW11S4 v4 router does not work.  I followed the steps (connected my modem to the router and goes a line from the router on my computer).  I don't get an internet connection.  If I unplug the modem to the router and to the computer (as I always do) no problems.  I have great connectivity.

    My computer (in XP) shows a strong signal wireless to the router, even if the modem is not plugged in, which I find strange.

    The question is, if I run a hard wire like this: computer-modem-router or modem-router (wireless) - to the computer, I can't connect to the internet.  When I take the router altogether, all right.

    I can't follow the steps to change the IP address and other things (I don't know how do it anyway) because I can't conect to the internet with the router somehow, while the router is attached.

    I can drive around my neighborhood and connect to popular wireless at will so I know my comptuer choices these signals to the top.

    Any ideas would be great!  Thank you.

    OK, finally found a post of 'BrickMonkey', which list step by step what to do and now everything works fine!  Thank you!  You are the best!

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/remove-security-master-AV

    Use malwarebytes to remove this program

    http://www.Malwarebytes.org/MBAM.php

    Security Master AV is a program that impersonates an anti-malware program, but is actually a computer infection that uses deceptive tactics to make you think you are infected. This program is considered to be a fake anti-spyware and belongs to the family of Virus Doctor. Security Master AV is generally installed through Trojans that pretend to be legitimate programs, but instead to install this rogue on your computer without your permission. The installer will also create many harmless files that are detected as malware when Security Master AV scans your computer. Once installed, the thief will be configured to start automatically when you log in to Windows. Once launched, it will scan your computer and state that the files that it created during installation are malicious files residing on your machine. In reality, these files are harmless and pose no harm to your computer. They are only intended for you to scare you into thinking you are infected in the hopes that you will then purchase the program.
