  Hello

  What program antivirus/security (or firewall) you were using before? You uninstall it and you used the
  Tools of suppression and/or special instructions provided by the manufacturer? If not then get the removal tool (and
  check any special instructions) and run it to remove the problem causing remains. (Including any trial
  put on the system by the constructor/manufacturer).

  For any need - download - REGISTER - go where get out you them - right click on restart - RUN AS ADMIN - after

  =============================================

  Here's what I use and recommend: (MSE and Prevx OR Avast and Prevx 3 but not all).

  Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.
  Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven very reliable and compatible.

  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 (is not necessary if you use MSE)

  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

  Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

  Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

  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.

  Give up looking for "stuff".

  Internet Explorer 7 (IE 7) part of the Vista operating system. It cannot be uninstalled. He lives and dies with the system.
  You don't use it, then, leave it alone. It's the ONLY thing that you can do.

  For your information only: IE7 is way out of date. It has been replaed by IE8 and now the most recent Internet Explorer is IE 9.

• Network globe icon missing

  Hello!

  When I am connected to my router (I put it to auto connect to internet) after awhile, I lose the globe icon (sometimes the globe icon does not appear when I start Windows), which means that I am not connected to the internet, but I am, and I can browse normally, just the globe icon disappeared. If I open the network & sharing Center there is a red cross between the network and the internet. I had no problem (I use the same router and everything) with it before this problem came 2 weeks ago. I reinstalled windows, I tried different routers and I made a few corrections that did not work. I use Windows Vista Home Premium, my network hardware is a chip embedded on Asus P5KC motherboard.

  Thanks in advance for the help!

• Win7, in the folder "Options Internet", the option 'Delete temporary Internet files' crashes without finishing.

  Win7, in the folder "Options Internet", the option 'Delete temporary Internet files' crashes without finishing. I have clean the system helps daily IOF, disk cleanup, SuperAntispyware and Malwarebytes.

  The cycle to remove the Temp Int files just hangs. IE will not open a usual address in the suite. Is this a bug/virus or can it be a simple solution?

  First of all, you cause you a lot of problems with several anti-virus running.  Malwarebytes and Super Antispyware are two AVs. Keep only one installed.

  Scan with ADWcleaner: https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/1-adwcleaner/ better and faster than Malwarebytes.

  You may have a damaged disc.  Run the chkdsk command.

  1. Start the globe
  2. All programs
  3. Accessories
  4. Right-click on command prompt and choose Run as administrator
  5. in the box, type chkdsk c: /r
  6. Accept (y) to run at next boot
  7. Restart

  This may take 1-3 hours.

  If this does not resolve the problem, reset IE

  Tools, Internet Options, advanced, reset.  Click on the 2ndary reset button too.

• To add the device to Internet.sony.tv

  I already registered my Blu - ray BDP-S580 player and activated, it.  Now, I'm trying to add the site: Internet.Sony.TV.com and my Bravia TV which I have listed here, so that I can see my services and more.  However, it asks for the CODE, I did not.  In the Blu - ray it says 'already activated '.  Other than the customer service by calling and going through the reset procedure all, I just can't not listed in the site?  The product is licensed.  It is in the database of Sony.

  You can get the registration on the tv code by accessing a Web application such as Netflix or Pandora. You can also get the registration code by going to the network menu which is a globe icon, then select activate the enhanced feature.

  The tv must be connected to the internet as well as a registration code will be generated by the device.

• Since the update of the 16 to 17, shortcuts to office created by dragging show generic Windows icon instead of the Firefox-page icon.

  During the upgrade of the FF 16 or 17, I can always drag the icon that is to the left of the url on the desktop (or even quick launch of XP, shortcuts to files, etc.) to create an internet shortcut to the current page. However, with 17 this method produces a shortcut that shows a generic Windows icon instead of a Firefox-page icon. Even if a generic Windows icon shows normally "no associated program," these always open with FF when double-clicked. But it does not look good. (BTW, all of the shortcuts created by this method in FF 16 or less preserved the FF-page 17 updated icon.)

  No idea why this has changed and how to fix it so that it looks the same as before?

  Pending the resolution of the present (and another question) I went back to 16 FF, and it works normally again. However, shortcuts that were created while I had 17 always display the generic Windows icon.
