AVG detects viruses, C:\sccfg.sys if I scan and delete, it will appear after each reboot.

Original title: C:\sccfg.sys

AVG detects C:\sccfg.sys
What is a rootkit?
How can I get rid of it permanently?
I ask AVG Anti-virus (free) to cope - AVV, then asks me to restart the computer
After the re - start AVG advises me that the threat has been eliminated.
AVG analysis finds no problem for the next (approx.) 2-3 weeks
Then, the threat is detected again.
I have lived this cycle several times now.
BUT I want to get rid of the threat for good.

Internet search suggests this threat comes from a program called "Folder Lock", (which I had installed for several years) but AVG has only been reported as a threat for maybe three months.
Research on the Internet tells me that the problem cannot be solved by uninstalling "Folder Lock"

How can I get rid of this threat?

Hi Leeds,

It seems that AVG detects C:\sccfg.sys as virus, if you scan and delete, it will appear after each reboot.

Let's run the virus scan in safe mode with networking:

Check out this link to start your computer in safe mode with networking:

A description of the options to boot in Safe Mode Windows XP http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315222

After starting in safe mode with network, virus using AVG anti-virus scanner.

With AVG Anti-virus, perform a full scan using the Microsoft Safety Scanner.

Refer to this link:

http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

I hope this helps!

  • Page will go full screen, jump autour and the toolbar will appear/disappear and page continues to change constantly. No virus/malware after scanning

    I have a laptop and I'm going on my home page (or go to another site from this page), the toolbar will back down in full screen. I'll go into 'tools' and disable the mode full screen (F11), then the entire screen "travel" up to down and will not stop. The toolbar will start to appear, and then back again and again, do not allow me to access anything whatsoever. It will last until I have completed the task with the future manager. I ran AVG, Spybot and malware (who, after working, I uninstalled) held, and nothing was found

    It started about a week ago, and to at about the same time I started having the ' does not ' when loading a page. This has never happened before, and there is no notice of virus/malware. I think to potential problems with the keyboard of the computer laptop, but computer says everything is functioning normally.

    If anyone has any ideas, it would be appreciated. I got the microphone. Security Essentials on my system, and tried to uninstall think there could be a problem there (computer ran incredibly slow, and this problem started a week after installation), and this shows it is not completely uninstalled and I get the error message whenever I start.

    Thank you and hope that someone knows something that can help.

  • Disable NDPROXY.sys in "Non-Plug and Play drivers" will be harmful to my Windows 2008 and 2003 servers?

    Since December 2010 my business about known Windows 2008 and Windows 2003 servers takeing 50 minutes or more to complete the boot process.  In general, they are sitting at the screen from Windows startup to full time.  Well, a month ago I activated the boot record and found that the NDPROXY.sys file was not loading the start-up newspaper.

    ...

    Loaded driver \SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\rdpbus.sys
    Loaded driver \SystemRoot\system32\drivers\swenum.sys

    So I studied this and found that there is a patch, http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/bulletin/MS10-099, systems of 2003 was published in December 2010 that touched this file.  Coincidentally, it was at the time we started long reboot problems. Windows 2008 systems were not affected by this patch, but they always NDPROXY.sys running.

    I would like to know if this file is causing this anomaly on my systems, and if so, can it be turned off?

  • AVG anti virus detect any ADF application as being infected

    We feel something weird right now. Since some time between 21 July and 22 all versions of AVG anti-virus are detecting the ADF as being infected by a virus JS/Redir javascript libraries. I already tried to contact the AVG on the issue, but they still have to answer in return. At the moment our applications are seen by users as infected with the virus. Since our application is internet facing us cannot really control what anti virus used by our clients. AVG is a fairly popular anti virus so I do not know that some of our customers was probably hit by it.

    Until someone asks even the demo hosted by Oracle to http://jdevadf.oracle.com/adf-richclient-demo/faces/index.jspx component causes AVG trigger, it is not only our application do.

    Any ideas on what can be done to get AVG to fix this fast (I think Oracle could carry more weight with them so we would do).

    I remember a similar question 2 or 3 years ago, where this provider software used a false positive. This issue then slipped by Oracle inform the seller of this false positive

    According to my research, this error message appears if you have traces of a previous installation of the AVG software.

    FOR EXAMPLE

    Hello TedGibney,

    As in earlier versions of Windows, for example, the Bill said Windows Defender, Vista only acts as an Anti-Spyware. It was only in later additions of Windows that Microsoft has added anti virus ability.

    As you have used AVG before I would suggest that you follow this anti virus application, when you are running Windows Vista.

    About PC Tune Up it would be wise to not use that, like many Tune Up / registry cleaners these applications can cause more problems than they actually heal.

  • Cannot download updates of Defender, I also have AVG Anti virus installed.

    Hi, I have windows Vista, and it has windows defender I have too, of the AVG anti-virus (which I do not work at the same time). I've updated, s to Auto. My question is why cant my computer download update of Defender, s? Mr. fix it several times, s but no chance to solve this problem which has lasted for more than 6 months, so believe me when I say I have tried everything, I used that I know (which is limited in the computer world) and I, m a little old and slow. Thanks for looking, EJ

    Original title: windows Defender

    Hello

    AVG disables Windows Defender by default

    If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.

    There is nothing to worry.

    Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.

    .

    If you want to have additional protection against malware using the version FREE of Malwarebytes AntiMalware:

    http://www.Malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free

    And for now, change startup Vista programs without using Defender, use one of these methods:

    "How to use MSCONFIG in Windows Vista"

    Or the program Autoruns for FREE:

  • AVG Anti-virus (malware) does not illuminate

    My os is windows vista Basic, windows defender is Windows Firewall turned on, I get alert windows from security saying me my avg anti virus (malware protection) is disabled. However, it will not turn on, ive recently installed avg 8.5 (free), I never had no problem with the previous avg 7, could be something to do with the Defender w or w Firewall?, any help please.

    Hi murphmeister,.

    Thank you for taking the time to post.

    It is possible to Windows Defender and if that AVG has a Malware/spyware scanner, it can cause conflicts as it is recommended to have only a spy software put real-time protection. It is allowed to have several installed, it has simply not recommended to have the two together at the real time protection. It really depends what the following shows us.

    ·         Click on the Start Orb on the Office

    ·         Select Control Panel

    ·         Select Security Center (Classic view)

    Under protection from malware it shows under the protection against viruses and software spies and other software malware protection?

    Have you tried to reinstall AVG?

    AVG seems to work; You can scan and access the program very well as far as you can tell?

    The following steps will attempt to repair management Windows (WMI) Instrumentation which can cause the Security Center to see the average price before trying the following steps please make sure that you do not have a restore point of the current system.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx/KB/322756

    ·         Click on the Start Orb on the Office

    ·         In the Search box, type cmd (do not hit enter)

    ·         Right click on cmd.exe and select run as administrator

    ·         Type or copy the following that winmgmt /verifyrepository and press enter

    ·         We should get this message: "WMI repository is incompatible"

    ·         Type or copy the following winmgmt /salvagerepository and press enter (you may need to try this one a couple times)

  • I was told that AVG (of virus) is not good.

    I was told not to keep AVG (virus removal) because that was bad. is this true?  I was told to REMOVE ALL THE OF moy. I clicked on AVGx2 on the desktop and there is no option to uninstall it. SOMEONE KNOWS WHAT TO DO?

    Hello michelle.e.TH,

    AVG anti virus is definitely not bad. As others have said, there are 'better' anti anti-virus there applications (not Norton or McAfee).

    Of course, if you use Windows 8 then unnecessary AVG that you already have Windows Defender. It is also an anti virus / anti-Malware application.

    AVG can be easily uninstalled via the screen of programs and features in Control Panel. Just look for the AVG entry in the list programs, click on it and it should start to uninstall.
