  • 4.2 of the ACS and Kaspersky antivirus

    Hi all

    I want to install Kaspersky Anti-virus on ACS version 4.2 with windows 2000.

    It is aplicable or not?

    Thanks in advance,

    Ayman Yehia

    Hi Ayman,

    As a general rule of thumb, there should be no limitation to install Kaspersky on Windows 2000 with ACS 4.2.

    In the past, we have seen problems with some anitviruses, such as Norton, for example, block the ACS services.

    Unfortunately, the AVs and releases are too different between them to build a specific compatibility matrix.

    As said, nothing should prevent ACS 4.2 to work when Kaspersky is installed, as long as Kaspersky does not block specific ports/services.

    Kind regards

    b. click on tools and then click on Manage Add-ons.

    c. in the menu view, select all add-ons to display all the modules that are installed on the computer.

    d. for each item in this list, select the add-on and then click Disable in the information window.

    e. When you have disabled all of the items in this list, click OK.

    f. exit, and then restart Internet Explorer.

    g. If problems do not recur, repeat steps a through c.

    h. click Activate for a simple add-on.

    i. Repeat steps f through h until you determine which add-on causes errors occur.

    Set IE as the default web browser and check the status.

    Method 3: Reset Internet explore and check if the problem persists.

  • I have two Trend Micro Agent and Kaspersky Anti - virus on my computer. Is this desirable?

    I have two Trend Micro Agent and Kaspersky Anti - virus on my computer. Is this desirable?

    Hello

    No, it isn't a good idea to have more than one program antivirus running at the same time.

    The reason is that there is a great chance that the 2 programs will conflict with each other.

    Yes.  It is a tool on demand and not in real time thus creates no problems or conflicts with the other application in real time, including Kaspersky Antivirus.

  • Why Windows tells me that my anti-virus is disabled and my Antivirus says it is? Who can I trust?

    Just like the title says, Windows tells me that Windows Defender and Avira (my antivirus) is off. But when I check on Avira it says "Protected" which means that it is on.

    Now I'm confused, can someone tell me what is the problem here? Thanks in advance.

    Thank you!

    You can not run 2 antivirus at the same time programs which is what you do. When you stall Avira it disabled Windows Defender and some third-party Antivirus do not play nice in Windows 8.0/8.1.  My advice would be to uninstall Avira via the Control Panel, then go to the site Avira and download and run their removal tool. Then, restart your computer. Windows Defender and Windows Firewall must now be on, l but check in the center of the Action. Windows Defender is more than able to defend your computer. You can also download and run Malwarebytes free version and you can run only occasionally but do not activate the free trial of pro.  Hope this helps and if you need another post to help and we will be happy to help you.

  • Kaspersky antivirus 2014

    KTA

    Your best bet is to ask Kaspersky.  They are the only ones who know the product.  We cannot but support here Microsoft products and it is the responsibility of Kaspersky so that they work with it.

    IMHO, I would never use Kaspersky on all my computers.  I saw several times down too much.

  • I can't download Windows Live, Skype and AVG antivirus. Problem with firewall or IE 8?

    My Eee PC 1000HE is insalled with Windows XP and Service Pack 3. I tried to download the Windows Live, Skype and AVG antivirus without success because they said that they could not detect my internet connections. I tried it on my workplace and my house so I think this isn't the router issue, it is the configuration on my computer. Also, I discovered that even I have disabled the windows firewall on my computer, the Security Center has always indicated that at least part of the firewall is still on. How to identify and disable firewall? Could this be a problem with IE8? I have to manually configure anything? I thank you and appreciate your help.

    If after your turn off the Windows Firewall, it shows that you have firewall, it means you want running an other firewall? You run any internet security software?

    You can try to reset internet explore (Tools-> internet option-> advance tab, then reset) and see if the problem is resolved. Alternatively, you can try to contact your ISP and ask them for help, they could provide you with the configuration information.

    Windows Defender and Kaspersky in conflict?

    You should never run more than one anti-virus program.  However, the 7 Windows Defender is an anti-spyware, not an anti-virus, so both running program should not be a problem.

    Hi James,

    1 did you change on your computer?
    2. do you get an error message?

    This problem could be related to Mcafee. Please temporarily disable Mcafee and check.

    Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must 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.

    If the problem does not persist, then there are certainly problems with Mcafee protection. In this case, please contact Mcafee support for assistance.

    Just reply with the results.

    Thank you

    Hey, Sunil,.

    With regard to your questions:

    1. we have a case of Dot1Q configured on the port of access of habit?  If not, then why? - Dot1q aims to tag executives leaving the switch and access is opposite, it does not therefore not used together marking.

  • I have a question comparing Dreamweaver and Muse.  Can I create a website with Muse, then learn Dreamweaver, and edit the site Web of Muse?  Or would I need to start over with a new Web site based on Dreamweaver?

    I have a question comparing Dreamweaver and Muse.  Can I create a website with Muse, then learn Dreamweaver, and edit the site Web of Muse?  Or would I need to start over with a new Web site based on Dreamweaver?

    I went the same route. I started to want to learn web design and the Muse is an excellent tool. The code it generates, however, not to use it in Dreamweaver. This could be done, I think this isn't worth it, even for a real Geek. Once you get to Muse you will find there are things missing, stuff, you want to do, but are just tough in Muse or you can buy a widget. It is possible in DW and you get which through subscription, so it makes sense. Me what I know now, I'll go directly to DW to learn, except if you want results right now. If you don't want something to cause I stay with Muse and maybe learn to animate CC to add some pizazz to the site. If you only want a simple layout and a couple supporting stick with Muse pages if you want a larger site use DW. Good luck and check out this page to Muse on Google Plus Adobe Muse for beginners - community - Google +...

    Viruses such as the behavior of the Acrobat Reader software. I have a laptop running WIN 7 and kaspersky AV. yesterday when I started my laptop I see all the icons from the browser on my QuickStart bar have been changed to the adobe reader icon and also observe that many other programs on my desktop have changed to the adobe reader icon. If you click the icon it opens adobe reader. I deleted Adobe reader using Add or remove programs and the icons back to normal. Yet once, I downloaded and installed Adobe reader 11. the problem has resurfaced. then again, I've uninstalled adobe reader software and installed Adobe Reader version 10 with the same question back. I have now uninstalled Adobe Reader. Please advise on how to install a working copy Adobe reader which will not infect or impinge upon other programs in my laptop.
