"Detected potentially harmful software (important)" I'm trying to do and nothing happens.
On my system, I have run an anti-virus from Iolo System Mechanic Pro, with Spy Emergency software to keep me very sure 95% of the time but lately Windows Action Center keeps blowing all the bells and whistles telling me "(important) detected potentially harmful software" when I press the button Clean System® or see details nothing happens. I stopped System Mechanic Pro and installed and ran Microsoft's Security Center and no problem was found and arrested the noticed. I uninstalled Security Center and has begun to System Mechanic upward and now I have the same problem. I know that Windows defender worked until this problem showed and now it just stopped when this popped up warning and Windows defender was back, 10 minutes later I returned to restore 15 days back the warning and the Defender is dead. Does anyone have any King of clue on how to fix this?
-J' tried another restore and checked for problems immediately before the message and don't find any problem with anything.
I am running Windows 7 Professional, just move to a motherboard Asus M5A99X EVO R2.0, a processor of 8320 AMDFX and 32 GB of ram running.
Other questions, I'll be happy to answer.
Thanks for your time. I really appreciate it.
I understand your frustration, since you obviously have a hardware configuration of the first order.

I recommend that you run Disk Cleanup or cCleaner to remove temporary files as this will reduce the time to scan security software.
Start the computer in safe mode with network and download and install Malwarebytes (free version for individuals only), updated definitions and run in normal mode. Disable other security software while you do the analyses.

You are able to download files from other sites?If you are using Internet Explorer, try to run without Add-ons and check if the problem persists or not.
To do this, click Start, type Internet Explorer in the start search box and then open Internet Explorer (No Add-ons).If the problem disappears, an add-on is causing the problem, check your add-ons and especially disable all those who may be linked to the reading of PDF.
If the problem persists, try to create a new user account and the test again under this new user account.

I downloaded Firefox about 6 months ago, and since I was not able to make softwareupdates. I get pop up notice on updates available, but nothing happens when I click on the update Firefox button.
Yes.
If he has problems with the update or the permissions then simpler is to download the full version and trash the version currently installed to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the file on the desktop disk image (dmg)
- Firefox 10.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
- Trash the present application Firefox to do a clean (re-) install
- Install the new version you downloaded
Your profile data is stored in the Firefox profile folder, so you will not lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re) install Firefox.

The details are in the question.
