Cannot depend on firewall Windows or updates.

Running Vista 64 bit, something that happened yesterday and it disabled Security essentials, disabled Windows Firewall and disabled the Windows updates. Ran Malwarebytes and found a Trojan. Win64.sire.FEF, removal of which ran in safe mode security essentials and removed it. Ran 2 other programs of viruses malware and found nothing. Restarted, security essentials works now however I can not turn on the firewall or activate the windows updates. FixIt tried and which did not work, tried forums and those who have not worked to date. does anyone have other ideas? Thank you Vista 64-bit

Tried Scannow and while he repaired some files others were not, and the problem persisted.

Finally resorted to a system restore, then ran antivirus scans again. Seems to be ok. Security Center now shows the firewall and updates work.

Thanks for the help

  • Cannot start the Firewall window 13 error code

    Hello world!

    I use Win 7 32 bit

    When I try to start the Windows Firewall, I got the message: ' Windows didn't start the Windows Firewall on the Local computer. " For more information, see the system event log. "If he is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor and refer to the service error code 13 special.

    I don't know how to solve this prolem.

    I need your help!

    Thank you!

    Hi the Trieu,

    1. are you under any domain active?
    2. are you a third party security/firewall on your computer?
      
    If Yes, then you may not be able to start Windows Firewall, since you have a 3rd group of firewall installed.

    Even if you can re-enable the Windows Firewall, you should not run two firewalls at the same time.

    Step 1:

    I suggest to uninstall any third-party firewall installed on your computer and check if the problem is resolved.

    Reference:

    Uninstall or change a program in windows.
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/uninstall-or-change-a-program

    Step 2:

    Try the following steps:

    a. right click on command prompt (start Menu\Programs\Accessories) and choose Run as administrator. Type (or copy and paste) the following command:

    WinMgmt /verifyrepository

    b. If the system returns 'referential WMI does not match', type this command:

    WinMgmt /salvagerepository

    The first time you run this command, it will fail. (It will be matter of commands to stop services causing his failure, saying: "a shutdown command was sent to a service that depend on other services running on"). It might take a few minutes for the services to stop. Rerun the last command. You may in fact need to run 3 times before finally runs and ends on its own.

    c. once the command is executed, you can determine if the problem is resolved.

    Step 3:

    You can also use Event Viewer to search for information on the problem.

    Reference:

    The display of the error messages in the event viewer
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/947321

    You can check for more information about this at the time where it appeared and post this information here to help us narrow down where the focus.

    Step 4:

    You should have these services began in the services window.

  • Firewall Windows disable the Internet Explorer loads Up after slow start after the installation of Windows updates

    Hello, (this the mystery of on and Off and back on Windows Firewall with slow loading of programs like Internet Explorer as this all is pass it on firewall, disable the firewall, the firewall, it occurs only during starts, after he fine / but very annoying on reboots whom he accuses of my computer down) / listed below is the cause of it , and when she first started, you have a solution?

    I recently installed the last 16 (High Profile) updates to security, for most security updates and updates from net framework as well as the removal of malware for windows XP tool.

    After installing these updates, now my Windows Firewall turns off during 'Boot Up' on all restarts. If I try to load Internet Explorer, it will also not load up to minutes serveral / while this happens... That's fine, then finally my firewall itself loads Up quickly turns to Internet Explorer and back on during this time around the same time.

    After these updates these things are happening on my computer now, it's as if there is a process running, but nothing run any virus, Trojan or worm etc just these updates caused this problem. I don't know if it updates is corrupt or not, but have tried different things as system file checker /scan etc with no luck.

    (1) computer boots to the top and seems to Load Up Fine ' until the ' or 'Look at this' but isn't, something is running in the background or process "wing unstalled" is obviously "unhooked", etc..

    2) try to load Internet Explorer last minutes and is very slow to load up, even if I 'don't load Internet Explorer' must still a long while that as in the firewall turn off for awhile some several «minutes» (way too long), before "auto turn on automatically return.

    (3) turns firewall Windows itself on "finally" as Internet Explorer finally loads upwards as well the two Internet Explorer is able to load 'definitely' and the firewall is on "finally" as many minutes later as listed above, at the same time.

    This could be the cause? Only, it has begun to 'After' I ran windows update and installed the 'most recently high security updates for windows XP' there were 16 listed mainly security updates and updates of net framework as well as the software removal tool windows malware.

    That's all that is changed on my system, I tried many things, nothing seems to fix this problem with my computer. I know for a fact that these updates are the cause, but am not sure that you caused it? Or how do to solve this problem, any sugguestions would be appreciated.

    (My Automatic Updates usually work, but this time not to go.) Updates are obtained through IE8 browser, but I prefer FireFox for daily use.)

    Thank you! Success!

    I used method 2, because I had already tried method 1 earlier, but the "fix it" went wrong. After reading the information from method 2, I opted to use my FireFox instead of IE8 browser, because I suspected that the process Internet Explorer that are included with the update was a large part of the cause of my problem. Among the options, I used Microsoft Download center to locate the update I needed and then through its validation and finally made the download and reboot. Voila!

    Can you please explain why the process more automated via IE did not work for me? Why I resorted to the labour process more that I used? Can I expect this of all the other "critical" updates that I get on my machine Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005? Maybe your answers would also be interesting to others.

    If you have any third-party security software installed on your computer, I suggest you to disable the security software and then check if it helps.

    Note : If you need to temporarily disable the security software, you should reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks
