can I run a really good antispyware and antivirus

My Defender is not regonizing the spyware software anti virus

Hello

You ask for recommendations, or you have a problem of Windows Defender?

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-download

Avast 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#TAB4

Or 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.prevx.com/   <-->

Choice of PCmag editor - Prevx-
http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

Also 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 run CS6 on the desktop and CS5 on laptop at the same time?

    First of all, let me start by saying that I am a small business owner. I'm at work between 10 to 16 hours a day, every day. I have very little time in my life that I'm not sitting at my desk main macintosh, unless I SLEEP.

    All my my work files on my desktop in CS5. I intend to continue to use CS5 to all working files for now. I bought only CS6 to backsave.

    But I want to LEARN CS6 and work slowly in before making a sudden or dramatic change.

    I want to turtorials, and go through the CS6 curve on my laptop. He finds peacfully beside me, every day. No downtime, I can play, learn and experiment. Without fear of doing any harm to my CS5 files or my mac of main production.

    If I try to run CS5 on the desktop and CS6 on the laptop, at the same time - they CALL HOME, STOP, FREEZE, LOCK UP, or and send me, in any form and to ADOBE PRISON or ABUSE CENTER?

    Someone has an answer for this?

    Yes, I have the answer. No, nothing horrible will happen.

  • Can I run dual boot Vista 32 and Windows 7 64? Can I use a upgrade disk to install the full version?

    original title: I have a simple question...

    I have Vista 32 bit.  I have two hard drives.  Vista 32 is on disk 0.  (C) I want to upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit.  I want to change the installation path on Windows 7 64 bit edition updated the software on my second drive, so I can run a system dual boot.  Windows 7 Setup will allow me to do?  I can use the version upgrade of the software for that, or do I have the full version?

    Hello

    You can't do what you want to do

    32-bit to 64-bit is NOT a upgrade path if you have always wanted to upgrade 32 bit vista

    It must be done with a clean install with a final certificate

    and you need a full license of windows 7 to install windows 7 on the 2nd hard drive

    You can dual boot vista 32-bit and 64-bit windows 7, if the manufacturer of your computer provides windows 7 drivers

    Hi Goondung,

    A. What is your default browser?
    B. do you receive this error only with firefox?

    Try to change the registry and check if it helps.

    1. go to "Start-> Run" (or press the windows key + R) and type regedit and click OK
    2. use the directory tree hierarchy to access the 'HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\HTTP\shell\open\ddeexec '.
    3. delete the registry key 'ddeexec '.
    4. Repeat for 'HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\HTTPS\shell\open\ddeexec' (and any other protocol that you want to solve)
    5 repeat for 'HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\FirefoxURL\shell\open\ddeexec '.
    6. Repeat for 'HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\FirefoxHTML\shell\open\ddeexec '.
    Important this article contains information about how to edit the registry. Make sure that you back up the registry before you edit it.

    Thank you..

    You cannot and should not attempt to use a any forms on Windows 8.1 or newer version at this time.  Yes, this is not supported, but in addition there are known problems with the help of more recent than 7 versions of Windows.  Win8.1 certification testing is underway.  Once completed and final approval, the matrix certification forms/reports will be updated with details.  These details likely will include information on the patches required and/or configurations.  Monitor the forms/States 11.1.2.2 Certification Matrix for the latest information.

    http://www.Oracle.com/technetwork/es/middleware/docs/Oracle-Forms-111220certmatrix-2087910.xls

    For those of you new to Oracle Forms, welcome, I encourage you to carefully review the spreadsheet above, as well as the product documentation before beginning any installation.  Not following the instructions and the conditions will result in installation attempts failed.  The documentation for 11 GR 2 Forms-State Library can be found here:

    http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/E48391_01/index.htm

    Can find details on the various pages of the RTO for forms:

  • I can't get to Yosemite... and I REALLY need. Help!

    Hello

    So I have a Mac Pro running 10.8.5 and I really need to update to Yosemite. Because I use a lot of hardware and software Audio Pro, I can never run because of instability the last OS X / incompatibility issues. My version of Pro Tools HD still does not support El Capitan at all, so even if the next operating system is about to be released, I can't yet day to the current version.

    I have Yosemite in my list of "Bought" from the App Store, because if I updated it before, it would have made my system useless. I also have a MacBook Pro that has been bundled with Yosemite, but may not work on a way to be able to install this OS on the desktop computer. I even created an external drive using the recovery mode, then together drive as boot on the office recovery mode drive, entered trying to install anywhere on the desktop, but after that I have put in my Apple ID at the beginning of the install said 'article temporarily unavailable' or something to that effect.

    It took me 15 hours just to make this recovery disk because my internet is so slow here, and I even nowhere more closely for Yosemite on my Mac Pro. So I'm pulling my hair out here... hoping someone has an answer as to how I can get Yosemite on my machine?

    Would appreciate ideas, people have!

    Thank you

    You can try asking at an Apple Retail Store or an Apple authorized repair store.

  • Can I run Firefox and Chrome separately on the same computer

    I'm currently under Firefox and Internet Explore on my computer, can I change Explorer for Google Chrome and that run with Firefox?
    Some articles suggest that they block each other

    Yes, you can run Firefox and Chrome. However, we have to be the default browser. For example, Windows will need to know which browser to use when opening links in programs. Some programs can be coded to use only Internet Explorer, so it is a good idea to leave it installed.

    • Firefox: Tools-> Options-> Advanced Panel (general tab)-> (Select Select) always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup-> check now
    • Chrome: Key tool-> Options-> basics (tab)-> make Google Chrome my default browser

    I need to know how to remove the most recent version of Firefox. I JUST downloaded tonight and my computer does not have this edit bar little to work with, so I can download the reader good Adobe and my internet was screwed up, since I downloaded the new version of Firefox. I want just the old version of this back because I can't download the Adobe stuff which is necessary to protect my computer against hackers apparently not. It would have been nice to know he had a problem with the new update of Firefox BEFORE I downloaded it. I have Vista, which is usually a problem with Adobe and Firefox. I don't seem to be able to run a lot of Adobe at all on my computer because of the Vista.
