8. never install repair or cleaning set

Fact: McAfee (and Norton) applications are notorious for not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself. Evidence for many years of McAfee "leftovers" is the troublemaker more likely here.

  • My Windows Vista is not all important security updates. Error message that says that one or more components of Windows Update are configured incorrectly.

    I have tried to trouble IT 50202, but which failed due to the error 2678!  Support center has no solution.  Microsoft site does not have its own error code 2678.  Ridiculous.

    This was a huge waste of time and effort because he tries and fails to reinstall everytime I stop.

    RECAP:

    • You bought the computer in January 2009;
    • The computer came with a preinstalled free McAfee;
    • A McAfee application was permanently installed until you have installed Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) on 23 August 2012;
    • You first met the problems associated with malware (according to MBAM) in June 2010, the first year of your McAfee subscription.
    • You have problems with Windows Update (MSE) on October 12, 2013, more than a year after you have installed MSE;
    • You have improved the pre-installed McAfee free trial to the full version rather than uninstall the free trialware, running the tool to remove McAfee & then make a clean installation of the paid version.
    • You have uninstalled the McAfee application until you have installed MSE but you don't not download/run the removal tool from McAfee before installing MSE.

    MY HUMBLE OPINION...

    • It was too late for the "come to the rescue" McAfee removal tool here.
    • There is a possibility, but remote, you see the effects of an infection for a long time of a certain type (because MSE has not been installed correctly & so never worked properly due to 'remains' of McAfee).
    • The computer must be connected to the internet or local networks (i.e. other computers) in its current state. All your personal data (e.g., banking online & passwords credit card) must be considered at risk, if not already compromised.

    Then what are you doing now?

    OPTION A: You can get Microsoft-sponsored Premium (i.e., paid) supported by the Office of response-online http://answerdesk.microsoftstore.com [1]

    OPTION C: Bite the bullet & buy a new computer (Win7).

    • If you want to transfer your personal data to the new computer, backup data from one or more DVDs (no shine). Perform analyses considered at least two 2 online (e.g., ESET;) Kaspersky; Bit Defender) of the DVD (s) before you transfer the data to the new computer.

    Hey Monty,

    What version of Windows 7 are you running?

    Go in Start > run and type winver to know. You must run Windows 7 Home Premium or higher in order to create an ad hoc network. Windows 7 Starter Edition cannot act as a server/host adhoc.

    The options available for automatic updates.
