  • How can I avoid firefox reset my browser preferences when my antivirus software scans my computer

    Starting on 19/02/2013 every time that my antivirus software scans my computer (per day), various Firefox browser preferences are being reset. (It seems that Firefox can be reset to the default value.) My home page is reset to mozilla etc...

    I have reset Firefox, un-installed and re-installed Firefox to no avail.
    Each time the computer is scanned my browser preferences are lost.
    

    The following information system:
    Windows 7 pro 64-bit
    AVG antivirus 2013 current build.

    Firefox v19.
    

    I don't remember anyone to another report that AVG has done this. In fact, it would be useful to know exactly what did AVG. Your home page is stored in a file named prefs.js in your personal settings Firefox (your Firefox profile folder). It deletes this file? Replacement of a 'clean' copy it right? He characterizes the read-only file so that your changes are not saved between sessions?

    Could you make a backup copy of your profile folder if you have around comparison after running the analysis? You will need to store on a USB key and it is not be analyzed, too.

    To access this folder, you can use

    Help > troubleshooting information > "view file" button.

    Navigate from one level to Ctrl + drag the folder to the destination of the copy.

  • Avast! Writes to the SSD much antivirus software during scan

    Hi guys,.

    I have installed avast! Antivirus on my Mac, do not protect my Mac specifically, but to keep it to pass on the Windows malware to other computers or on my Windows partition. When the full analysis of the system, I notice that he reads a lot of data in the player (that I know), but it saves up to 40 GB of data in the SSD at the end of the analysis! I know writing excessively on the SSD can shorten their life (although I tried to calculate its expected service life using my daily writing, and I should have at least another 10 years of use, which is more than enough).

    My point being, why is avast! write on the disk so during a scan? Is it caused by a heuristic analysis or something? I don't want to put unnecessary pressure on my SSD, even though I know that Apple SSD are generally pretty durable.

    Thank you.

    Note: Please don't give me a conference on the installation of antivirus software on Mac - I know that this is not strictly necessary but I explain why I use it at the beginning of my post.

    Your windows contacts can take care of themselves. He has no need of you to your Mac protecting wear.

    Your Mac is already well protected without that avast garbage making it unstable.

  • Is this a real site to buy microsoft software?

    .msonlineshop - it's a real site to buy microsoft software?

    Hi kumar,.

    I don't know, but it feels good.  It is said or IMPIOUS, it is the MS Store but it's NOT the Store Ms.

    More information on this link are available here: http://who.godaddy.com/whois.aspx?domain=msonlineshop.com&prog_id=GoDaddy and to be honest, it is not legitimate for me that the coordinates are not sensible.  A legitimate business would have been better and more detailed.  And they probably would not be saved in this mode.  I think that I would avoid to be on the safe side.

    The REAL Microsoft Store can be found here: http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/DisplayHomePage.

    I would use the link I provide instead of the one you did.  If you want to buy articles, I suggest somewhere else that this place makes me very suspicious.  Note the lack of company information and the use of one address gmail to support the customer.  I admit it looks pretty good, but there are some details that are simply not good.  Legitimate companies just can't do things this way.

    I hope this helps.  I guess that prevention is better than cure.

    Good luck!

    PS I guess I have to run some scans malware again because I clicked on the site and even some links in there to check it out - but no alert came, so I hope I'm OK.

Tried to restore with the restoration of the system, but when I restarted it, it said the system restore could not be made. I changed it then with my laptop and I can connect to the internet as the host.

    Hello

    This can happen if the uninstall process fails and leaves behind a Symantec registry value. See the following Symantec article.

    Unable to connect to the Internet after uninstalling Norton AntiVirus.

    http://Service1.Symantec.com/support/NAV.nsf/8d071816eedd7cac88256c0e005a96e5/751c3298ab99cf7188256d34006702e2?OpenDocument

    Important: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

    Insalled new computer with an older version of xp pro 32 bit and a 64-bit processor.  Need a compatible Antivirus software.  Avast and AVG locked system does not load.

    Any of them, the operating system is what determines if you use a 64-bit anti-virus program not the processor. Lock-up questions do not sound like they are a related program.

    Did you just install a new processor? All programs are locked up? Uninstall Avast and reinstall, see if that helps.

    Avira AntiVir
    Avast
    Microsoft Security Essentials
