Equium L40 very slow and Windows Defender found a Trojan horse

I was wondering if you could help me with a situation.

Turned my laptop on and Windows Defender found a Trojan, so I chose all clear. Then it arrived 5 minutes later and I pressed on delete everything again.

Afterwards my internet is incredibly slow and often freezing.
Opening files and folders often locked up but I could still click on the red X if it took 30 seconds to close after that I clicked on the X.

I get now random pop ups not even on the internet.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you.

Hi Kieran

Have you tried different antivirus software?
I would recommend this. I use a software called Antivir freeware antivirus and it is nice.
It of free and you can download it from various internet sites.

In addition, you could use an Ad-aware to kill this Trojan horse. It of also for free and maybe it could be useful too.
Google just to download it for free.

If you won't be able to remove the virus from your system by using programs like Antivir, antivirus Norton antivirus, etc. and then use your Toshiba Recovery CD.

I think this should help.

Good bye

    Hello

    I had the similar problem with my Satellite P10. After installation of SP2, the startup procedure takes much longer. Check please the processes that start to run and disable some of them if you n t need them.

    Have you installed SP2 or it is also to the recovery image?

    In my opinion, it is not specific for certain just usual laptop models. My second unit (without SP2) starts a lot faster.

  • Windows Update not working do not Error Message and Windows Defender cannot update Error Message definitions

    I have a laptop Dell 1501 with Vista Home Basic 32-bit.

    I ran CA 2010 Security Suite and you have scanned for Malware with regard to the Windows Update Error Message. He found none. I ran Microsoft Malware malicious tool, and it found. I ran Windows Defender and he found. I don't have CA and Windows Firewall to protect my computer and I have disabled both in trying to solve this problem of Windows Update and Windows Defender.

    I got this error 4 days ago. Here is what I tried:

    -I went on various Web sites, including Microsoft Support - and tried to solve the problem through services.msc and msconfig.exe. None worked.

    -J' noticed in msconfig. where it says start waiting next to Windows Update. There are 3-4 elements, which are affiliated to Windows Update and made sure they did not exist in the registry.

    -J' have to ensure that they were supposed to be automatic or manual under services.msc.

    -J' rebooted several times and nothing changes.

    Windows Defender does not update the definitions, and I do not know if this coincides with the release of Windows does not.

    I am at my wit's end and do not want to crash and burn my computer.

    I need serious help. Please, I beg you!

    Thank you.

    I had to call Microsoft. Alex tried to add registry keys and input upgrade.

    My Windows Update has almost been altered. It could be my mistake or it has become corrupted when running other services at the same time.

    I was sent a Windows 7 Home Premium Disc to upgrade and start over, as my Vista disk was corrupted as well.

    I would not recommend trying one of the suggestions listed on other sites. It's my personal opinion because I have in the past and it worsened my problem.

    I also wouldn't delete all programs (unless absolutely necessary) because I remove 4 MSMXL and he made their work more difficult.

    ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    Sometimes the only solution is to call Microsoft and they will evaluate if a charge of telephone support is necessary from the outset, before they run for your problem.

    Despite what you may have read, Microsoft Technical Support technicians are very efficient and kind.

    We inform you to open a slot during your day or even open your day for the problem to be solved.

    Mine took 2 1/2 hours, and they had to remind me the next day to make the order for the disk because it could not be done the same day.

    The more patient and kind you are, the best representative.

    Hope this helps and thanks for reading,.

  • Computer is very slow and IE does not work all the time.

    I bought a computer from my old employeer.  He is doing all sorts of things, or should I say not to do all sorts of things.  It is very slow and IE does not work all the time.  They have questions arise and ask if the administrator oks things and other things like that.  It came with any disks.  I would like to wipe, clean and load a new disc, but I don't know where to find the disc or if I can do it.   Can someone please?

    Hello

    Proceed as follows to contribute to these two questions. You can probably buy the disks of Vista machine to system or get
    the former employer to do it for you if necessary.

    Try these and it can also be a good idea to update your main drivers later. The General corruption can also play a
    role in this issue. And even the TCP/IP stack might need to be refreshed.

    What antivirus/antispyware/security products do you have on the machine? Be one you ALREADY had on this
    machine, including those you have uninstalled (they leave leftovers behind which can cause strange problems).

    If no joy there's something blocking perhaps.

    Start - All Programs - Accessories - System Tools - IE with no Addons - what works best?

    IE - Tools - Internet Options - Advanced - tab click on restore, and then click Reset - apply / OK

    IE - Tools - Internet Options - Security tab - click on reset all default areas - apply / OK

    Close and restart IE or IE with no addons

    not better?

    IE - tools - manage Addons (for sure disable SSV2 if it is there, it is no longer necessary but Java always install
    "(and it causes problems - you never update Java to go back in and turn it off again)." Search for other possible problems.

    Windows Defender - tools - software explore - look for problems with programs that do not look right. Permit
    are usually OK and "unauthorized" are not always bad. If in doubt about a program to ask about it here.

    Could be that a BHO - BHOremover - free - standalone program, needs no installation, download and run - not all
    are bad, but some can cause your question (toolbars are BHO).

    Maybe need of these:

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - Device Manager - Display Adapter - note the brand and complete model of your
    video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this
    cannot do anything as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
    This will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party with their
    own the software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restoration) and then of the manufacturer of the device
    (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for the BIOS, Chipset and software)
    updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after each installation.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW on device at the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER - manually check by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    This leaves ONE of Windows updates, but it will not install the drivers who are generally older and cause

  • Hanging of Thunderbird 38, gel and does not question. 17 accounts pop (Win 8.1, MalwareBytes and Windows Defender)

    Since the update of Thunderbird to 38.* I had nothing but problems with Thunderbird wedging (spinning wheel waiting), a "Mozilla Thunderbird (not answer) ' in the header bar, whiting of window application out and possibly TB box in hell - a small box to appear asking if I want to - close the program, expected so he can resolve itself , or check the internet, then close. I now give the floor it the box to hell (B2H - call it all you want, but I'm cursed every time he pop up!)

    I did everything proposed here and nothing suits. I have used Thunderbird for years with all the same files and Add ons WITHOUT problem. On the first day of the 38 update everything has changed. When Mozilla realizes that it is in the upgrade and find the problem!

    Here is what I tried with nothing working...
    1. I don't have AVG, the only malware bytes and windows defender
    2. it still happens in SafeMode with no active add-on.
    3. I stopped saving function which slows down the frequency of the sinking, but did not eliminate the problem.
    4. I have deleted hundreds of older emails, thinking it was that but who have done nothing.
    5. I changed some accounts of POP at the thought of iMAP that was the problem but nothing has changed.
    6. I made several attempts to patch both Mozilla support and outdoors on the net. Nothing works. Looking at all the people who have the same problems, I have to say that the problem is handling of file. I noticed that as the issue with others who have multi files and emails. The answer is not to reduce these volumes but to understand why thunderbird managed their fine before and what has changed to make the program hang now? Who should be on your end, taken responsibility. Keep us faithful and solve the problem...

    Here are my tips...

    A. I have several files and thousands of e-mails longer and have manged fines, as matter of fact, Thunderbird has been great. Then like a good stooge I approved the moz and did my upgrade to 38. Never had a problem before the upgrade. After the upgrade, everything went to *.

    B. the 38 version upgrade was a big change. When I look in the folder that has been labeled the envoys or Inbox folder (where all emails from each account is collected), all the emails listed would disappear when I moved my mouse over them! Emails disappearing! They were there in records specific e-mail below but not but in the case of head as if it were just a day earlier and with the upgrade. I thought that as an addition on the question and waited for the difficulty that happened not so long ago. Again, which could be a problem of record add-on.

    C. the upgrade to 38 were other issues, but if the madness going no problem was not bad enough, the problem seems to be growing with each ' update or bugfix that followed. Don't hold me to it but I think it was in 38.1.2 or 8 (I think that's it. I wasn't paying attention, but if I had known that I would have to tell it, I will!) That's when hanging interminably long. When the program closed at least I got a project saved, then I read on line that the problem was the registration of open messages, I turned the auto reduction. He did change the frequency of the hanging (white screen pause) and timing (where the B2H appears), but he was always there and always!

    D. I had hoped with 38.2 there will be improvements. Nothing has changed. I didn't know that 38.3 would make this change/fix, but it's not. If I write all this, so you have what I know as a loyal user since 2007.

    E. here is what you need to complete the picture. I'm on a PC running 8.1. on an Intel i7-4770, with 32 GB of ram, now you tell me when you will issue the update to fix the problem! Once again, Mozilla, I suggest you start by looking at how TB 38 manages several emails, files and archives. Not all of us have only one e-mail account. Most of us have been really happy with TB before 38. If you can't find the question, can you show us how to get back to a version prior to 38?

    Thanks for listening and hope that helps!

  • Satellite Pro M10 suddenly ran very slow and freezes

    Two weeks ago, that my SP M10 is suddenly very slow and freeze. After a reset, it began to check the HARD drive, which lasted about 8 hours, and several repair lost clusters to files. But the student pilot did not run faster. I reformatted the HDD to FAT32 (NTFS has not worked) and reinstalled Windows XP. First, it seemed to work very well, but a few hours later, it freezes again.

    After 10-20 min, I got access. This has not changed so far. CHKDSK another also lasted several hours and again showed some lost clusters. I think that my HARD drive is damaged, but how can I see if there a lot of bad sectors? Can I fix it? Can I possibly replace my 40 GB HARD drive with a larger HARD drive capacity?

    Are there restrictions or can I use any brand?

  • Satellite Pro L500 - wireless connection is very slow and unstable

    Hello

    I bought a Satellite Pro L500 a couple of weeks (Windows 7 and Realtek 8191SE). I have no problem connecting to public networks, but I can't use it at my place, where I have a broadband cable connection.
    The strange thing is that, in the same room, I have no problem with my old A105 Satellite (Windows XP).

    It is also very strange the fact that, even if the signal is good, sometimes excellent, the connection is very slow and unstable (it disconnects when I try to browse the Internet).

    I have already tried:

    -Update the Realtek drivers.
    -Disconnect the firewall;
    -Modification of the properties of the Realtek card.

    Maybe it's a problem with the software or, on the contrary, with the material?

    Thank you!
    Poncet

    Hi Patrick,

    If you can connect to public networks correctly, I think that this problem is related to your router at home. So I would recommend updating the firmware on your router. You can get it on the page of manufactured goods.

    Also try to disable WLAN encryption and MAC address filtering.

    By the way: you can access the Internet at home via a cable connection?
