  If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to

  resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be more difficult to detect as the
  cause.

  No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
  to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
  its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
  extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.

  How can I save items on a USB key with Vista

  Plug the Flash drive.  Go to start / computer and find your USB drive listed there.  Find what you want to record on the FlashDrive (from other units identified in Explorer) and copy / them (CTRL + C) and then go to your USB key and click it to open it and press Ctrl + V to paste the files.  That's all there is to it.  You can create folders to store files, like flash drives have limits on the number of files can be stored in the root directory (but not folders).

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• How can I Log In to account in second Partition?

  On my Windows XP PRO, I have a side for the journal of my wife with a password that works very well. However, on the other side where I suppose that is to connect to be asked a password. I've never set up a password on my side of the partition. So, how can we set up a password on my side of the partition? Thank you.

  Mandatory NAG on Windows XP:

  Windows XP has not been supported since April 8, 2014.  It became increasingly dangerous to use a Windows XP computer that is connected to the Internet.  Many third-party programs stopped working with Windows XP and a growing number of secure web sites (e.g., banks) will no longer work with Internet Explorer 8, which is the latest version of Internet Explorer available for Windows XP.

  • Sign in to the account of your wife.
  • Click Start and select Control Panel
    • If you see "Select a category", click on "User accounts" and then click on "User accounts" under the heading "or an icon from the control panel.
    • If you see a collection of icons, click twice on "user accounts".
  • You should a screen which, among other things, displays an icon for each user account on the computer.
    • Is your wife "computer administrator" or "limited user"?
  • If your wife is a "computer administrator", then proceed as follows:
    • Click on your account
    • On the next screen, click on 'Change password' or 'delete the password '.
    • Follow the rest of the on-screen instructions to complete the operation and then close the control panel
  • If your wife is a 'Limited' account, then proceed as follows:
    • Click Start and then log off
    • To the home screen (where you see the icons for both accounts), press CTRL + ALT + DELETE twice
    • You should see the 'classic' on the window, which includes an area for 'User name' and 'Password' area-
      
    • Type "Administrator" (without the quotes) in the username box and leave the password empty box.  Click OK.
    • You should now be connected to the built-in Administrator account where you can follow the steps under "If your wife is a"computer administrator"

  Furthermore, the word "partition" is not the right word to use in this context.  This word has a specific meaning with regard to computers that has nothing to do with several user accounts on a standard Windows computer.

• Accidentally changed myself to be the administrator. Now, I can't do anything on my computer. How can I return to be an administrator?

  I pressed a button on the accident and he took off to be a Director. Now, I am not recognised and cannot do things on my computer. How can I return my administrator status?

  Log in as the built-in Administrator and change yourself (or leave you the user account and only use the administrator account if necessary.)
