• I had the virus "XP Antivirus 2012" and now impossible to update MSE

  I had the virus "XP Antivirus 2012" and now impossible to update MSE.  Yesterday, I downloaded the Scanner of MS on another computer and transferred to the computer infected in safe mode and ran the Scanner from Ms.  Fortunately, it removed the virus, but this morning I started the computer and check the updates on MSE, but he would not check.  A window titled "Microsoft Security Essentials" read, "Security Essentials could not check the updates antivirus and antispyware due to internet or network connectivity problem."  He was also the error code: 0 x 80248014.

  Can my firewall Windows or Security Center maintain MSE? Or should I do something else?

• virus: I struggled with the virus for some time and cannot get rid of them

  I have struggled with the virus for some time and cannot get rid of them. I bought a few programs, but they have also been infected. any suggestions for a really good virus buster.

  Hello

  First of all, an antivirus solution to an already infected system of loading is usually pretty useless. The bug will block all attempts to remove or load what it sees as a threat. Second, without knowing which virus you are affected by, it is difficult to be precise.

  You can take action include:

  (a) work in safe mode, there is much less likely that the virus is able to load and resist actively.

  (b) the safe mode, run utilities malwarebytes.org and AV solution that was installed * before * your infection.

  (c) post is back with a better description of what is on your system to learn more targeted advice.

• I continue to receive calls from numbers not available with an Indian accent saying that they are from the Technical Department of windows and I have a problem with my computer.

  Original title: scams?

  I continue to receive calls from numbers not available with an Indian accent saying that they are from the Technical Department of windows and I have a problem with my computer. Normally, I just say that I don't have and hung up. Today, I took a little further and he said that they discovered that I had loads of malware/viruses etc and that they could identify with them. I was obviously very suspicious because he seemed to have my correct Windows ID number and with care on 'Run' he told me to type things like cmd eventviewer and inf where he referred to a file 1394.pnf. I stopped while he asked remotely to access my computer. However, I got a phone number 01916450337 and his P786000 id I noticed that many people are posting on your forum-is this another one of those scams?

  Continue to put the phone down. They are all crooks.

  They get you to open Event Viewer, because there are words such as 'critical' and 'error' along the this.

  No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy

  its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one

• Applications not no projection in all PROGRAMS on the start of Vista after the virus.

  Hello

  My portable computer with windows Vista has recently been infected with a virus that I have now deleted.
  But all my application to 'All programs' files have been deleted.  I managed to download a zip file of the links standard for Vista Home Premium which is my OS and pasted these in the start menu for all users in the C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu.  However, I don't know how to do to back up all my personal applications.
  I really can not re - install all the, they are too many and I am not sure that I have even all disks and downloads at hand to do. The task would be enormous.  Is there a way to solve this in the registry? or any other method? Can someone direct me please?
  I tried to use system restore, but I have nothing but the most recent restore points, and it did not work.  I am also concerned about restoring the registry entries virus files.
  Please can you let me know if something can be done to solve this problem.  I am a user experienced and confident enough in taking a challenge complicated if you are available.
  Look forward to a response, thanks a lot

  Forget the junction points.  They are only for backwards compatibility (and are not called points of junction of the system, only in the documentation of the system).  I don't think that the Start Menu, Documents and Settings folder (the point of junction for your profile among others) will seek to replace the one right that should be there.  I might try it if it was me, but it's not worth the risk for you (it could cause more damage than it solves - and I'm not going to try it just to see if it works).

  It's a shame to system restore because this would probably solve the problem quickly and efficiently.  Perhaps you should consider maintaining that a few points spread over time even if they do not place - you are short of space that you need to restore space?  I didn't know you had only a very current restore point or I have suggested the procedure.

  If you're short on space, here are some suggestions:

  A great many things affect speed and performance, and the amount of space available on your system - especially the existence of various files and which is loaded on the system.  There are ways to handle this in Vista (and that you follow all the suggestions) - and of course the amount and type of RAM and the speed of your processor and motherboard (but I'll just discuss here the software solutions - you can go to your supplier/manufacturer of computers for hardware solutions, if some are available (I) for example, am maxed out at 2 GB of RAM in my motherboard and there is no motherboard better available for my laptop model).

  To enhance your speed, to using Disk Cleanup: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/76073-disk-cleanup.html.

  Also do optimization: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Optimize-Windows-Vista-for-better-performance.

  Go to start / search options and type msconfig and enter and then double-click on the program icon that appears.  Go to the Startup tab and uncheck any program that you don't need from start.  This will probably be the majority of the items here - otherwise most of them (some are needed as the AV program but more are there to make open source programs more quickly and make you believe that they are more effective).  This will free up a lot of RAM and a great help to make your system faster (but maybe not as long as you'll be able to see the difference - but maybe according to how many useless stuff loads at startup).

  You can perform some of these tasks (and more that aren't entirely related) using http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/default.htm (which also seeks the malware).  I do it on a monthly basis only as part of normal maintenance, and I suggest you do the same.  Make sure that you select a full analysis - it will take a few hours (mine can take about 5-6) but can works in the background so start when he has enough time to complete.

  You also want to have good AV programs and HAVE on your system (so no malware running in the background drain resources).  Windows Defender is a good PROGRAM.  The new, free Microsoft Security Essentials http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/default.aspx is a great AV / AM program that has one of the least impacts on resources and the performance of the system, according to reliable sources and it does the job very well.  If you are using MSE, you don't need really Defender (but you would with any other AV program).  I suggest also download http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php and it works every month to catch anything that might miss MSE/Defender.

  If you follow these tips, and do this regularly (at least monthly), then I think that you will have faster to a machine as it is able to give material.

  Perhaps one of the recovery programs will work (try Recuva if you have not already - this is a very good).  It is possible that this only works with the data files and not with files system (which would explain why you're having without success) because I never used them to recover before system folders (I have always used the system restore).

  Good luck! Lorien - a - MCSE/MCSA/network + / A +.

• Laptop does not start until after the virus attack

  Last night I was browsing the web when suddenly I got a lot of warnings of viruses Microsoft arise. I immediately disconnected and then ran a full scan of the system of McAfee, but he can't find anything, so I keep the laptop. Now when I try to start it, just at the point where the wallpaper appears (but), I get the following message - "Data Execution Prevention - to help protect your computer, Windows has closed this program - converter of Cookie by Microsoft. The boot process and then stops and goes no further. I then click "close message" (which is the only option), then get a 'Cookie converter has encountered a problem and needs to close... ". "Please tell Microsoft this problem"... window. The laptop remains frozen, regardless if I click 'Send error report' or 'do not send '. My only option then must he put off, which seems to be quite normally, i.e. "Logging Off" followed by "Windows is shutting down".

  I tried booting in safe mode and also "safe mode, last known good configuration", but exactly the same thing happens every time either I can't past the error message above.

  Can anyone suggest what I can try?

  I am running Windows XP SP3 and I am up to date with all Windows updates.

  I agree with Akuma.

  In this case backup your data and use the Toshiba Recovery disk and reinstall Windows. It only takes a few minutes and not so long as trying to correct the problem.
  I think it would be the best solution because the same phenomenon occurs in safe mode and last known good configuration.

  Hello
  I have a Satellite A100-785 with Vista 32 bit.

  I installed the Windows updates and another program. My antivirus detected a virus and delete files and now the USB bus and wireless do not work.
  I downloaded and installed a new driver for my model, but it does not work.

  Help, please!

  And, I want to recover the factory setting but I don't have a recovery CD now. How can I restore to factory settings? If cannot repair with the method of mormal and kare without recovery CD.
  See:
  [http://i39.tinypic.com/rw4f8p.jpg]

  Hello

  You should try to remove the devices that they are marked with a yellow exclamation point. Start Notepad, and then install the latest drivers from the Toshiba site.

  If the virus has destroyed an important system files that it s is no longer possible to install a driver and you need to reinstall Windows using the Toshiba recovery disc.

  Did you create the Toshiba Recovery disk? You can do this with the Toshiba recovery disc creator, which is preinstalled on your laptop. Maybe you are able to do this at the moment.
  In addition, you reinstall Windows using the recovery of HARD drive option. So go to the advanced boot menu and select Repair my computer. Some Windows files will be loaded and then you can choose the Toshiba Recovery option and follow the instructions on the screen.

  If you can t create the recovery disk, you must order a new Toshiba directly:
