• Can I have Windows Defender and Avast on the same computer?

  If I have Windows Defender, I need avast on my computer too?

  Hello

  Yes, Windows Defender is an antispyware program if you need an antivirus as well.

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

  Here's what I use and recommend: (these are all free and very effective versions.)

  Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
  launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
  reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.

  Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leave the file system, Web,.
  Operational network (Script and behavior are also recommended in Ver 6 +).

  Prevx - Home - free

  Windows Firewall

  Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

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

  I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.

  right of IE)

  Two versions of Avast are available 6.x and 4.8 x

  Avast - home - free - 6.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
  Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the

• Corruption, massive in almost all of the network services user account and firewall Windows

  Win 7 Pro SP 1. An account with administrator privileges. Domestic wireless access to a router; D-link devices. System was working fine until about seven 2 (and I pointed out some Windows updates installed September 1, but don't think it's relevant). Computer users allege no unusual behavior on their part Analyses of viruses from Windows Defender and Avast free were clear. Restoring from a previous restore point (two different ones) has not solved the problem - the restore points were date known system OK. Corruption has been maintained despite the restorations (worked and failed).

  A complaint that has lost network access. On the survey, found that all these symptoms mentioned below, and no doubt other symptoms exist that I am not aware of. The solution was to create a new user account, and which restored massive configuration problems.

  Symptoms:

  1 Windows Firewall could not turn on. Yes, I looked at the KBs regarding this issue (basic dependencies does not and so on) and tried individual hotfixes from the KB, without success.

  2. in the network sharing Center, there was no display of the usual icons at the top of this window. Those who show the personal computer connected to the router connected to the internet. Error message displayed re no dependence of base.

  3. it is possible to send signals between the USB wireless device on the computer and the wireless router. In the task area, the Windows message was 'limited connectivity', something like that. It was possible to connect and disconnect using this facility. But no internet access, notes.

  4. the resolution of the problems would not be executed. The message was that political diagnostics are not running. All attempts to start this service (with its two assistance services) has failed. Tried the individual patches of the relevant KB (wearing mostly on change permissions in the registry at some points), which failed.

  5. in addition, the Dhcp client service would not be executed. Once again, among the KBs tried the proposed fix on the permissions change, which failed. (Omitted in the sense that I could not always start the service; editing the registry was fine).

  5. firewall KB contained a file "beats" that you can create and run, I did, and another had similar commands (start and stop some services) that could be run in a command window. Both failed on some services - especially Mspsvc (Microsoft protection Service) - Although the success was shown to other services.

  6. when I created a new user profile, I re-entered the registry permissions in some of these places just to see what was different. In the damaged user profile, what was missing, it was the standard system of services (about 3 or 4 of them; things like the name of Dhcp). What showed was the News user account (for the specific user account; administrator; and two more points).

  Telling me that something has released a complete subsystem or three. Never seen this behaviour before.

  Would be nice to have an idea where to look for a fix / restore procedure.

  Hello

  Thank you for providing us with brief information on the specific issue that you are facing the computer.

  I would like to know, have you been able to access the network on the new user profile?

  As you have tried several steps including the change of permission for the registry value and run the batch file, I would ask to perform Scan SFC.

  System File Checker is a Windows utility that allows users to find corruptions in Windows system files and restore the damaged files.

  For more information on how to scan SFC, please see the Microsoft Support Article below.

  Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files

  Let us know the results of the SFC Scan, so that we can help you further.

• Windows defender do I really need?

  I used Avast free anti virus and superantispyware free version. Suddenly I wonder to run Windows Defender. Do I need to do? When I try to update that prompted I am denied access and referred to the "system administrator".  I am the primary user of this computer at home. I don't know how to get around this problem of system administrator. Above all, I wonder if with Avast updated security do I really need this Windows Defender?  What do you recommend?

  Hello

  I prefer to use WIndows Defender and Avast (Prevx - free). You have not really
  told in detail what exactly is the problem.

  SuperAntiSpyware can be extremely invasive, so I put it's a scanner only on request.

  To configure SuperAntiSpyware as a scanner to the application if you want:

  You need to check all the entries - entries are by SuperAdBlocker which is used by
  SuperAntiSpyware.

  Autoruns - free - see what programs are configured so that it starts automatically when your system
  boots and you login. Autoruns shows you the full list of registry and file locations where
  applications can configure Auto-start settings.
  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx
  Virtue of the present article in AutoRuns:

  HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services

  SASDIFSV SASDIFSV. SYS SUPERAdBlocker.com and SUPERAntiSpyware.com c:\program files\superantispyware\sasdifsv.sys

  SASENUM SASENUM. SYS SUPERAdBlocker.com and SUPERAntiSpyware.com-c:\program files\superantispyware\sasenum.sys

  SASKUTIL SASKUTIL. SYS SUPERAdBlocker.com and SUPERAntiSpyware.com c:\program files\superantispyware\saskutil.sys

  There may be others as my memory is not clear - there are 4 and probably 5 entries and they
  be quite so don't look close for SuperAntiSpyware ratings and SuperAdBlocker.

• Get avast free antivirus popup

  I recently uninstalled avast free antivirus, I installed avg free instead. Whenever I start my pc, I get a pop up window that says... This application has failed to start because ashbase.dll not found. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem. And after I close this pop-up window I get a second pop up window that says Avast Anti-virus has stopped working properly. It has been deleted from my computer, but it still appears on the startup items and it will not let me delete them. I use windows vista family premium on a pc hp Pavilion slimline is only 2 years old. I did a system restore to its original factory setting because I had other problems, System Restore fixed the other problems and now this.

  Personally, I think you're better off with Avast or Microsoft Security Essentials on AVG, but try to run this tool to get rid of all traces of Avast.

• Services cannot start Windows do not (MMC errors)

  I'm new to Microsoft Answers.

  I'm having a strange problem. Yesterday when I turned on my computer in the morning, I realized that Firefox, Windows Media Player, Avast, security Windows, Windows Search, Windows Update Center and possibly more programs or services would not run or run correctly.  I can't imagine what I did which would lead to this problem.  I tried a system restore, but that does not solve the problem.  I scanned with 4 different antivirus (with installed both 1) applications and nothing was found.  The problem seems to be with Windows Services won't start do not.  There are 5 services in the Microsoft Management Console is configured to start automatically, and possibly others built in the manual which do not start. Attempt to start manually generates them an error and that the problem is not resolved.  Here are some of the errors I receive:

  Error 1079: The account specified for this service is different from the account specified for other services running in the same process.

  Error 1053: The service did not demand launch or timely control.

  the service on Local computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs.

  Error 1297: A privilege that the service needs to function properly does not exist in the service account configuration. You can use the GPMC Microsoft (MMC) Services (services.msc) snap and snap MMC local security (secpol.msc) settings to display the configuration of the service and set up the account.

  I tried a solution online that suggested the layout "NT AUTHORITY\LocalService" under "this account:" field in the dialog box properties of the service of a donor, but that does not work either. My system is also significantly more sluggish, with the CPU at a constant 100% and I can't install software (for example, Google chrome would not install but Opera would be.)  The installation wizard is not just open for Chrome). Open the Microsoft Management Console runs also on global blocks (it is not just the MMC that does not).

  Any help would be appreciated. I am running Windows Vista Home Premium SP2

  Service permissions seems to be different from XP in Vista.  In XP load you a security template and then adjust through which access permissions.

  It is possible to download for Vista security models and then try this method of adjustment of Service permissions.

• When I turn the windows firewall of it says that I have no firewall when avasts firewall is enabled

  original title: firewall

  I activated the windows firewall and I have avast internet sercurity silent firewall but when I turn windows firewall it says I have no firewall when avasts firewall is enabled is it ok if I let both on

  as the title says. Right click, or ctrl-c more works.
  IM do not use hotmail voluntarily, it is an account of the University, so I did not have the possibility of beeing an account together, I need to copy paste a little. If I forward the message to another e-mail account, it works very well. technical support at the uni could not help ofc. Never used to have this problem until a few months ago and couldn't find anything about it on google. and I really don't want to switch to IE...
  I'm using windows 7 64 bit

  You have any kind of content to block extensions, such as Adblock Plus?

  You have the Silverlight plug-in installed? Some users have reported problems on Hotmail with it in the past.

  If you run Firefox in Safe Mode, is not the problem disappear?

• Unable to browse the internet despite being connected.

  Hello

  I seem to be impossible to to connect to the internet using msn, steam, xfire, not even Internet Explorer can connect and yet firefox can for a short period, but even that ends by stops. I don't know if it has something to do with the firewall because I had prior workprograms and add them as exceptions, any ideas?

  I think that it could be down to zonealarm and perhaps truevector, cos despite ZA being installed on the computer it deosn actually seem to do something, I do not have the ZA icon on the taskbar and when I go to Security Center tells me that only Windows Defender and avast! antivirus which act as malware programs of protection, he said not ZA is installed, but is simply disabled.

  Thanks, Gavin

  Thanks to both of them, it turns out that it was TrueVector and ZA, I just uninstall it and its all working fine now.
