an other anti virus product scanned attachment e
IM using microsoft security essentials and when I try to open the attachment of e mail that suddenly this pop up comes w/c is norton and I allowed to analyze the attachment to the email. my laptop is dell and in installed programs there no norton is installed. There is a single anti virus installed in my pc w/c what MSE how come a product norton just popped up? my pc is dell xps m1330 Service Pack 2 version vista Home premium edition.
Just to be sure, run the Norton Removal Tool http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Uninstallers/Norton-Removal-Tool.shtml that will definitely get rid of any Norton product that may hide (may be installed as a trial or installed and deleted incorrectly at some point in the past).
I hope this helps. If this isn't the case, after return and we will try something different. He could be installed as an add-on and therefore does not appear in programs and features (but how it happened without you knowing that I don't know).
Good luck!

Is Stopzilla a reliable anti-virus product?
I have Microsoft Security Essentials and Windows Defender on my computer. Should I still have an anti-virus program. I StopZilla but I can't install it if I don't. Thank you
Hello
Personally, I would leave the StopZilla off the system. (You do not want two antivirus
running at the same time much less current computer programs.)Here's what I use and recommend: (these are all free and very effective versions.)
Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leave the file system, Web,.
Operational network (Script and behavior are also recommended in Ver 6 +).Prevx - Home - free
Windows Firewall
Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)
Protected IE - mode
IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)
I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
(It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
right of IE)Two versions of Avast are available 6.x and 4.8 x
Avast - home - free - 6.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
disabled - click OK
http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-downloadAvast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
Finish those you don't use).
http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast
Prevx - home - free small, fast, exceptional protection CLOUD, working with other security
programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here
or use Google to see how to remove.

http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.aspAlso get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
(not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

can I use Firefox with other anti virus programs such as avast?
I have heard do not use more than one anti virus.
I just buy avast and want to know if I can keep FF on computer?The good news is, Firefox is a web browser, not an antivirus program, then Yes, you can use Firefox and Avast.
You were using before another antivirus program installed a toolbar in Firefox? You can remove those as part of your switch. You can see and disable or remove toolbars on this page:
Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > addons > Extensions category
Does it work?

is it possible to have all my anti virus/malware programs to all work together without one stop on the other?
I doubt it.
You should never have more than one security product installed on the PC, providing active protection / scan. This can cause performance problems, system instability and conflicts between programs and can affect all installed antivirus product efficiency. Even if you try to have more than one product installed, with an asset and another disabled, disabled product will probably still active components and/or installation of the drivers installed that will conflict with any other antivirus program.

So, my computer has a virus moneypak and ontop of the said virus pro safety. And I can't download any anti-virus scan malware to get rid of them due to my failure of security scanning. So I went to check on my Microsoft Security databases to see what is happening, and it will not even open! Whenever I click it, it says "You don't have the right permission to open" (my security essential has been like that for maybe a week now. and I just received today two viruses) while I try to uninstall, but it won't allow me because of something not having the right to access and contact an administrator. So I can't open the MSE, can't uninstall it, can not download any virus anti-malware to get rid of the moneypak and pro. I'm so lost, please any suggestion on what I can do to fix my computer would be greatly appreciated!
