• How can I stop Windows Messenger from starting automatically

  I have never used Windows Messenger.  I recently bought / implement a system refurbished with XP Home - after about a month of use, the Herald began popping up automatically whenever I start the machine, or when I open Outlook Express (and immediately requires a screen name access code (whenever it starts, even if I gave him once to satisfy) (, so I have two things to cancel).

  As I say, he began to do this by himself without conscious action on my part, a few weeks after the introduction of the machine. I had an older XP machine for 6 years and never seen it happen.

  Two questions: 1) is this a normal behavior to require a name to screen EACH time it starts? I would have thought that it would save one associated with the connection.

  (2) how can I do to stop the automatic aperture? I don't necessarily want to kill-I can actually try to use it someday. I just that it quietly hide in the system tray, as it has always done before.

  To stop the Messenger to start with Windows:

  (1) right-click on the Windows Messenger icon in the system tray.
  2) click Open.
  (3) in Windows Messenger, click on tools, then click Options.
  4) click the Preferences tab.
  (5) in the preferences, uncheck the "run Windows Messenger when Windows starts" and "Allow Windows Messenger to run in the background", and then click Ok.

  To prevent Outlook Express from loading Messenger

  (1) open Outlook Express
  2) click Tools, Options
  3) click on general tab
  (4) uncheck the box to automatically log on to Windows Messenger
  5) click OK Microsoft Security MVP, 2004-2009

  This message/question of the OP seemed specific to the use of McAfee and Windows Defender as the OP said.

  I'm sorry that you disagree with my answer.

• How can I disable Windows security alerts?

  I'm giving 2 computers as birthday presents for 2 young grandchildren to use for word processing and printing only.  They both taught by their parents that they will never be able to have computers in their bedrooms connected to the Internet.   Both computers are running Windows XP Pro version 2002 with Service Pack 3 OS.  It's annoying to have the pop-up WARNING "is your computer may be in danger..." "whenever a computer is started, especially since the closure of the message not always keep it to appear again.  Does anyone have a solution for this problem?

  Hi demckay7,

  If you do not have to connect to the computer with the internet or any other devices that can infect computers, you can disable the security temporarily alert.

  For more information, see: How to disable Security Center alerts

  However, I recommend you to install security software on your computer andmake sure that you update the anti-virus software frequently so that it works correctly.

  You can also download & install Microsoft Security Essentials on your machine.

  Hope the helps of information. Please post back and we do know.

• How can I disable windows security as it is clashing with my AVG program

  my computer freezes constantly and very very slow, it's a Toshiba satellite laptop and the only thing I can think is that my AVG (which I really like) is in conflict with the Windows Security Center.   I looked everywhere to try and disconnect the windows one or just turn it off, but have had no success.  I hope someone out there can help please.

  This isn't probably what is causing the problems. ;-)

  (Both analysis) FULL scans for malwareMalwareBytes - FREE and SuperAntiSpyware - FREE; Assuming that the AVG Free: uninstall and download/install the latest version of it.

  Update the drivers for hardware from Toshiba.

  See what everything starts up with the machine / with your connection using AutoRuns.

• How can I disable windows backup; He still has not

  We have to stop the backup operation; Unable to save files for some strange reason.

  I suggest avoid you the Windows backup program and you get a good commercial backup program. This forum meets for a windows problem reports. I know that I was very impressed when I tried it. Three I'm familiar with and like Norton Ghost (which I use for 8 years no 1 problem), Easeus Todo Backup free, you can download it from

  http://www.TODO-backup.com/products/home/free-backup-software.htm and Memeo , which has 30 day free trial and you can buy it for $29.99 - you can download it from http://memeo.com . You can get Ghost for almost nothing (like me), if you look at the sales.

  The March 2012 issue of PC World has been very high on the program FREE of Easeus and CNET. I've tested it recently in a variety of configurations; and must say that I am very impressed. As Ghost will support up to a network drive and it will create a bootable CD for when your PC does not start. See comment by CNET of it to

  http://download.cnet.com/Easeus-Todo-Backup-Free/3000-2242_4-10964460.html?tag=mncol;1#editorsreview .

  CNET has a lot of reviews of backup program to

  http://download.cnet.com/windows/backup-software/?tag=contentBody;sideBar .

  Some of them are free (the last time I checked there over 300), some have free trials (more), and some are buying only (more than 200).

  -

  External hard drives are the best for backup. You can get a 500 GB one for $70 and a 1 TB for around $90. You can also buy a flash drive of 32 GB for less than $20. It is the best insurance you can buy ever!

  I hope this helps. Good luck

• Sometimes I disable my internet router intentionally & Firefox implements a warning window to this being off topic. How can I disable this alert window?

  When I go out or go to bed at night, I disable my wireless internet router. Sometimes I turn off when I just do something that doesn't require me to be online. Whenever I do this, Firefox continues implementing a warning window every two minutes telling me that I have no connection (that I know). How can I disable this window alert so it isn't keep appear in the middle of a game or a document that I do?

  Its an addon, not firefox.

  Start Firefox in Safe Mode to fix the problem and to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).
