• Center of Windows security, firewall and defender will be not turn on?

  I can not turn Windows Vista 32 bit SP2 or Windows Defender Security Center or Windows Firewall. All services are also missing: Center security, firewall, Windows Defender and Windows. Also my BITS (Background Intelligent Transfer Service) was also missing.

  I get error 0 x 80070422 when I try to run Defender. I have no problem when you try to run the Windows Firewall. I have could not start the Security Center when I try to open it.

  , I ran an in depth with AVG and ran Adaware scan and nothing showed up. I also ran a fix of batch file from another topic that was supposed to restart these services and who restarted the service BITS, but still no luck with the Defender, firewall or Security Center. I turned off AVG free version (no built in firewall) and still no luck. I also ran a Microsoft fix for the Windows Firewall and it just hung and never finished. As far as I can tell that it continues to receive windows updates, 16/05/12 was his last.

  It's my dads PC and I don't know when this started. I installed AVG and Adaware when it 1st had the PC 2 years ago.

  All that I really care is that it has the Windows Firewall running it is already using the free version of AVG, but it has no firewall. My question is, is it possible Microsoft Security following summer not included in the previous version of Vista before service packs? Adversely, if possible, so I just tried to download the windows firewall or the whole of MS Security Center?

  Anyway, any help with this would be appreciated. I read a lot of topics already.

  Norton internet security becomes awkward

  Peter

  Hello

  Yes you still need an antivirus program and you are right that Norton tends to cause problems.

  Norton Removal Tool
  http://Service1.Symantec.com/support/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2005033108162039

  You want to remove Norton and old and even uninstalled antivirus can leave remnants then download and run
  the Norton Removal Tool. Also, I would get Avast and Prevx and you should be in good shape.

  Download the 3 to get back to after removing the McAfee antivirus.

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

  --------------------------------------------------------

  Here is what I use:

  Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.

  Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except away from Standard, Web and network is working.

  Prevx - Home - free

  Windows Firewall

  Windows Defender

  Protected IE - mode

  IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

  I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
  (Sometimes you have to temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom right of IE)

  Avast - stop home - free - all shields you do no need except leave Standard, Web and network running.
  (Double-click the blue icon - details look OK. - upper left Shields - those that you do not cancel).
  http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html
  Prevx - Home - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD free protection, working with other security programs. It comes
  a scan only, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something to come back here or use Google to see how to remove.
  http://www.prevx.com/

  PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
  http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

  Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever suspect malware, and that would be unusual with
  Avast and Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie and then run it as
  a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

• Windows Firewall and Security Center will not start, error 1068 and 1079

  I can't start my firewall Windows, error: 1079... or Security Center, error: 1068. Can help you with this question? When I try to access the Dependencies tab I get this error: Win 32: the specefied for this service is different from the specefied to account for other services running in the same process.

  I checked to see if dependencies were the same account before I got the message of 'Win 32' and WMI Service runs in the same account (Local Service) as firewall and Security Center, but the RPC Service is running on the Network Service account and cannot be changed via the services console, because the account fields are gray and cannot be viewed or modified. I try to avoid using the tool 'SubInACL' because I don't want to reset the whole registry.

  Help, please!

  The other post:

  I had a problem with obtaining the Windows Firewall and Security Center to start. Service account permissions have been changed at some point, including the depedencies. I get the error 1079 on the Windows Firewall and 1068 on the Security Center. Both are defined on the Local Service, but dependence, the CPP is set to Network Service and cannot be changed because the user fields are gray. I try to avoid using the SubInACL.exe because I don't want to reset the whole registry. Can you help me please?

  No, I'm not on a domain. I connect via a open wireless "hotspot". My main problem is; I don't have a Firewall or Security Center. Nor will begin. I get the error: 1068, to Security Center and an error: 1079 on Windows Firewall. When I try to access the dependencies on either I get this window:

  WIN 32: The account specified for this service is different from the account specified for other services running in the same process.

  A month ago I made the mistake of trying to brand of ACDSee of security, "ACDOne" which includes software "BitDefender". That's when I lost my firewall and Security Center. BIG MISTAKE! I uninstalled and deleted all the files that I found that have been left.

  My Security Essentials and Windows Defender work very well. I'm stuck and need help with this please! Please, I beg you! Someone... Help!

  Delete a few files TEMP this morning and AOL and Firefox no longer works. AOL will again and removed all traces of the first installation of Firefox and downloaded a new version of Firefox. The program opens, but it immediately goes into a status of "not responding" and appears in the tab 'connection '. Cannot click on anything on the Firefox screen.

• McAfee Firewall and analysis

  I have a Center B520 idea with the following installed: -.

  NET BT more (McAfee) installed through my Internet BT package

  Upgrade of Windows 8 (which has updated to Windows 7, which was originally installed)

  Last week, a message appeared telling me that the McAfee Firewall and Anti Virus have been disabled.

  When I went to them I couldn't turn on them. I removed and then reinstalled BT Net more, but it has not fixed the problem.

  I thought then that I would do a system restore to an earlier date, but at the end of the present, I got the following error message:

  System restore failed during the removal of the following

  Path C:\Windows\System32\DRIVERS\b95df1c913bec87a.sys

  an unexpected error occurred 0x8007007b

  I also seem to have lost the ability to restore the complete system for the default option.

  Anyone has any ideas on what might solve this problem, and also, is there a way I can now restore the system to its original state with Windows 7

  Thanks for any help

  Hello solid,

  Sorry for the delay in response. I tried what you said but not good. The problem was because I had installed Windows 8 Upgrade over the original factory installation Windows 7. This disables the restore a key.

  I talked to technical Lenovo who pointed me in the direction of the restoration of disks. I now have these and have restored the computer back to its "factory settings (so the delay). The problem with McAfee has now been resolved.

  I think that the computer has been infected by a virus, but the cleaning system all corrected now.

  Thanks for your help.

• I will still have my firewall turned on and off I do not know why but I tried another firewall, and it seems to work ok

  If you date something on it so that it remains not.

  I will still have my firewall turned on and off I do not know why but I tried another firewall, and it seems to work ok

  Hey Roscoe,

  If you're still using MSE, I doubt there's this problem.  This made a few changes to the Windows Firewall during installation (if necessary), but certainly nothing that would cause it to turn on and off like that.  It could be malware (malware can cause anything), but frankly more sounds like a file systems or corruption or some type of problem with your Windows Firewall or security setting or your operating system in a more general sense rather than the malicious software.  I will refer you to experts who specialize in this kind of thing, but if they tell you it's a malware problem, then come back here and we will be happy to help you solve it.

  For that matter as described, please post here to get the best advice from specialists in this: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/security?tab=all which will be more than happy to help you.  You will probably need to uninstall the other firewall you have installed so they can diagnose the problem properly and without hindrance (not just disable it, but completely uninstall to be sure) - but they can tell you more on this subject.  Don't forget up next to the Windows Version to use the dropmenu to choose your version if you find yourself in the most appropriate forum for your system.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• . How can I disable AND restore (step by step) Windows XP firewall and also disable and restore Microsoft Security Essentials?

  Read the 'Yellow Book' on Windows XP for Dummies, I learned that if you do not disable the windows firewall and other protection, if you defragment, you tend to gum the system.  I just be reformatted with a Home Edition CD and I have the SP2 and SP3 updates (134!), as well as Adobe Reader and Flash Player, and a few other basic programs installed.  Does anyone know a quick way to disable MS SecEss and the firewall of Windows XP?  I guess its easy just go to the firewall in the control panel and to stop him for now.  Still to learn, people.  Thanks a lot for all ideas.  Dave Becker
