Original title: completely clueless
I'm totally clueless when it comes to computers, but I try very hard to learn. I am using the help section a LOT, but I can't seem to find an answer to the only thing that makes me crazy. How can you know what drivers and programs are essential and those that can be deleted without harming my computer? I have a very basic net accountant I learn on before I screw up a portable more expensive and I do a cleaning on my C and D drives to improve performance because it runs so slow but it tells me I have the drivers who slow down Windows. I would greatky appreciate any assistance from someone who has the patience of a saint and is willing to take the time to explain it to me, in terms laymans. Thanks in advance
Drivers: you should know what you bought (in your machine) and what * you * want out of it. If you want stability and things work properly - let alone the drivers. If you want more performance check (and other games) in the drivers of motherboard chipset and video network from the manufacturers Web site... For more stability stick with the OEM website (HP, Dell, Lenovo - the assembler of the whole machine) and slightly more performance/push the limits (even if they want to work too - so still some stability) - access to websites of its components manufacturer.
With regard to the programs: you can decide what you use and do not use. If you are not sure, look it up (Google) or ask.

How can I get control of my computer?
I am the only user of my own personal computer and I am denied access to > Documents and settings as well as many other locatons. When I go to > Security tab and try to change the settings, I get "Ynable to save permission changes on Documents and Settings. Access is denied. "How can I get control of my computer?
"Documents and Settings" is not a real file location, it is a junction point which has been built into Windows 7, so that old programs would be able to find. He re - runs the program to the actual location of these files on Windows 7. You can't do anything to it because it does not exist, except as a pointer.

I just got a call from windows saying pirates were trying to get access to my computer and asked me to go to the run menu and type eventvwr and go to security and count the red Xs and yellow triangles, after that I said I was under 18, they told me to wait for their phone call. They also said that they were in England in the Department in charge of piracy (not the exact words), I was wondering if it was a scam because (don't not to sound racists but) they sounded to the East Indies and I read on some other getting calls of the people of the East Indies and it didn't sound like a normal call center because there was a lot of noise in the background it all seemed a bit suspicious to me.
Fake phone calls to technical support
Calls unrequested telephone of this nature are almost always a common scam. Do not let them give any info, do not give access to your PC, not give them all the money and do not go to all the websites that they suggest. One moment.
Please see:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/security/online-privacy/msname.aspx .
Microsoft issues never not solicited for phone calls of support or security.
These types of callers can use completely fictitious names or bogusly claim to be of real companies other than Microsoft as well.

I have these multiple .exe running on my registry? security of wireless modem?
I have 2 questions:
1. I use a wireless modem to get on the internet at Virgin Mobile Broadband2Go device. Is it possible for some to get access to my PC, when this device is active?
2. I think that someone is due to ghosting my PC. On my registry, I have 2 of the following: iexplore.exe attributed to administrator. Then I have an explorer.exe attributed to administrator. I have 6 svchost.exe running 2 assigned the Local, 2 assigned to network service and 2 running service attributed to the system. Can anyone provide an answer why I have these multiples, exe running on my registry?
Thank you very much
GreenGiant
HelloYes, it is possible to gain access to your computer; but not without your permission. The firewall on the computer prevents any unauthorized entry. Refer to the following articles.What is a firewall?Windows FirewallHow will I know if a wireless network is secure?When you say "Record" do you mean "Services" in the Windows Task Manager. Its common to have these processes or services to run in the background.'iexplore.exe' means 'Internet Explorer'.'explorer.exe' means 'Windows Explorer'.What is svchost.exe?You can scan your computer with MSE to check the virus or malware if it affects your performance.The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.
Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.
